Introduction:When Curt meets a man who wants him in his bed as well as in his life, he thinks he may have found that special someone. He becomes suspicious of the man, however, when he learns that his mysterious disappearances may be part of a plan to lure the "Lost Boys" into a life much worse than the one from which they have been cast out. Curt also fears that his curiosity may have made him a marked man. Driven to find out more about this group with its cult-like following, Curt's answers may lie in a young man who knocks on his door late one night, the same young man who has been watching him as he makes his debut as lead actor in a major motion picture.Excerpt:What Curt did understand, and what the real Lost Boys did not, was that the only reason they were forced out was to eliminate the competition by the adult men for the young girls of the group who were forced into polygamous marriages to men two or three times their own age. These young girls were often mothers by the age of thirteen. ********Luke looked down and spoke so softly that Curt barely heard. "It's just that you are me. I mean, you are being me and I'm waiting to see what happens to you." Curt thought about this for a minute, not quite understanding. Then he got it. "Oh, I see. You know I'm just playing a part, right?" Curt turned to look at Luke, but he continued to look down. "I know, but I'm not," Luke said. Despite Curt's efforts to separate himself from the parts he played, this one was sitting right beside him. "I can't honestly say how it turns out, Luke. I just take it one day at a time. Would you like to tell me your story?" Luke needed to tell someone. Luke needed help. He looked so tired.
