That same summer, she had been entrusted--or some might say cursed--with the extraordinary button box by Richard Farris, the mysterious stranger in the black suit. The seductive and powerful box offered Gwendy small gifts in exchange for its care and feeding until Farris eventually returned, promising the young girl she'd never see the box again. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOne day, though, the button box suddenly reappears but this time, without Richard Farris to explain why, or what she's supposed to do with it.
