Summary

The hole was moving! The walls were falling down...there was a rope under his arms. There was a face above. An anxious face, yelling something down to him, something he didn't understand. A strange face, with something wrong about the eyes. Tanned skin, unshaven, black hair a bit too long. Joey knows there is a Japanese soldier hiding in the hills. It was a Japanese man, a soldier, who hauled him out of the mineshaft, who lit the fire to bring the searchers, and then disappeared. But, nobody believes Joey. After all, it is World War 2 and children have nightmares. Joey knows he will have to find the soldier himself, must find him. Could he be part of the invasion force Could he be sending messages to waiting submarines.
