A young American boy spends his summer in Ireland and solves a mystery that captivates the entire village. Driven by curiosity and his own search for meaning in life, he faces his fears and discovers the Secret of the Cave.


American teen Roy Wallace knows that his dad is Irish, but when he finds himself in a tiny fishing village on the Irish west coast, he feels a long way from home. Before long, a series of unexplainable events occurs, and murmurs of “ghosts” sweep through the village.


Determined to solve the mystery and disprove the superstition of the villagers, Roy takes on the case with all the curiosity and shortcomings you might expect of a 21st century teenager. Befriended and aided by teenage locals Abbey and Oscar, Roy begins to find clues.


Strangely, all of the mysterious deeds seem to have some benefit for the village. Driven by curiosity and his own search for meaning in life, when all signs point toward the sea cave, Roy faces his fears and discovers the Secret of the Cave.
