Klappentext

A tense group of seven 1960s-era teenagers huddle in a dimly lit garage, their faces illuminated by a single bare bulb hanging over a wooden workbench. On the bench sits a single plain paper cup, a crumpled festival napkin beside it. The mood is conspiratorial and fearful. In the foreground, a boy with brown hair and hazel eyes (Michael) points decisively at a map of a small town pinned to a corkboard, while a girl with long black hair (Patricia) examines a chemistry textbook. A boy with coal-black hair (Thomas) watches the door warily, and a freckled boy with red hair (Lenny) looks on with skeptical intensity. Outside the garage window, the blurred lights of a small-town autumn festival are visible, the cheerful glow contrasting with the serious scene inside. The art style is realistic with a muted, suspenseful color palette, evoking a classic murder mystery novel cover.
