Ruffner's Cave - William Yancey Brown - Bog

This is a novel that will appeal to young adults and others of all ages who have a taste for fantasy. Max Mason is 18 years old and just finished high school in Luray, Virginia. His school friends go to nearby Ruffner's Cave one Saturday night, a place little known to anyone except the town people, but known to them for decades. They dance in the "Ballroom." Max misses the dance, because he is in Front Royal buying a used car, with cash from his dad. When he gets back, the dance is all the news: his friends have disappeared. After everyone else gives up, Max figures the answer is deep in the cave. It is, but not what you'd think.
