Episode Description from the Publisher

The Red Treehouse is dedicated to my Dad. I love you, Pop. Stalking the Los Llanos region of Colombia and Venezuela is a vengeful spirit carrying a bag of bones, and stalking his next victim. You'll know he's close by the whistle--but how close you hear it determines whether or not your time is up. Who is El Silbón? Join me in The Red Treehouse to find out!
