Synopsis

Danger, intrigue, threatening death, plus strange and bewildering locations. All these were part of what youthful Biff Brewster encountered. They were surprising because it was part of what was meant to be a pleasant vacation at the beginning.Biff’s father and uncle were both well-traveled and accustomed to unusual situations and they felt it could be a matter of learning and enjoyment for the sixteen-year-old boy. He was big, strong, and very intelligent, so his relatives felt such a trip could add to a future for the lad. It turned out far differently than expectations.A jungle wilderness jam-packed with hazards and thrills. That’s what eventually confronted Biff going through territory inhabited with dreaded head-hunters. It had begun when Biff boarded a plane bound for Brazil and was handed an unexpected letter and told to keep it safe.Among other things, Biff had a knack for making friends and it didn’t take long for another of those to happen; this time with a young native named Kamuka who, in turn, excitedly accepted the association. Fortunately, both were capable of teaming up to handle the perilous misadventures. The two young men several times were surprised and shocked but were able to keep their wits and physical capabilities to ward off many obstacles. You can learn about these by listening.
