Near the intersection of Witcham and Jackson, Georgie Denbrough’s young life came to an abrupt and tragic end. His paper boat, assembled from a Derry News newspaper with care by his older brother Bill, had careened down a sewer drain on its doomed maiden voyage and into the hands of what—not who—would be Georgie's killer.

Would this horrific experience color their view of the universe?
