Deep in the Ozark Mountains, five teenage boys are about to learn that some secrets should stay buried...

Summer, 1976. While America gears up to celebrate its bicentennial, Jake, Will, Tanner, Sam, and Billy Joe are preparing for an adventure of their own -- a camping trip into the Arkansas wilderness. It's their first real taste of independence, a golden moment of friendship and discovery under the endless summer skies. They set out with dreams of campfires, laughter, and the thrill of exploring the unknown.

But in the heart of those ancient hills, something is waiting for them. Watching. Hungry.

Their excitement turns to unease when they stumble across something that defies explanation -- a discovery that awakens a darkness older than the mountains themselves. What begins as a coming-of-age journey descends into a nightmare as the boys are drawn into an ancient curse, a force that threatens not just their friendship, but their very lives. As reality and dreams begin to blur, they must confront their fears, their bond, and a shadowy menace that grows stronger with each passing night.

David A. Lambert's Rangatang masterfully weaves the nostalgic charm of carefree summer days with the creeping dread of the unknown. With echoes of Stephen King's IT and the heart-wrenching camaraderie of Stand By Me, this gripping tale captures the beauty of friendship, the pain of sacrifice, and the primal terror of what lurks in the dark.

For fans of Boy's Life, Summer of Night, and stories that balance the sweetness of youth with the chill of supernatural horror, Rangatang will keep you turning the pages late into the night.

Some summers change you forever. Some secrets never let you go. Once you enter these hills, you may never see the shadows the same way again.
