Benigno #1 (Of 5)

BENIGNO

SCOOT. The tranquility of Benigno's life is shattered by Rodolfo, the cruel Mayor of Santa Ana. In a single night, Benigno's family is torn from him, and the magic his grandmother used to protect him does not go as planned. It summons something no one expected: the spirit of a long-dead philosopher who takes up residence in Benigno's belly and waits to emerge and guide him. By the light of the spirit's lantern, Benigno must follow the winding and treacherous road through forests, across rivers, and to the top of smoky volcanoes if he has any hope of escape!
