He also doesn't know why he threw the rock that day in the woods. He didn't \u003ci\u003emean\u003c\/i\u003e for the girl to fall and break her arm. But he's blamed anyway. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEnraged at how unfair life is, Hex runs into the woods and finds himself in a strange clearing--a clearing that can't possibly exist--where a strange old woman offers him a deal: she'll rid the world of those who wronged him. All he has to do is accept and they'll be forgotten, forever. But what Hex doesn't know is that someone else has been offered the same deal. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen Hex's best friend Tommo wakes up the next day, something feels wrong.
