Publisher's Synopsis
Perfect for middle grade readers who loved The Magic Tree House books when they were younger, Percy Jackson fans, readers who love stories featuring smart, strong girls, and families who loved Stranger Things but don't like monsters to be THAT scary.
Harmony O'Rourke's mom has moved them to a new town. Again. Worse, Harmony has been shipped off to an "academic" summer camp in the redwoods. But it turns out Camp Coho is a screening tool for a secret magical order looking for the next generation of forest guardians.
A late-night adventure lands Harmony and four other campers in training sessions for promising apprentices. Soon they're studying ancient languages and learning spells for flying, floating and self-defense.
Then Harmony's mother goes missing back home, and it turns out she may not be what she seems. Harmony and her friends decide to use their new skills to do their own detective work. Can five soon-to-be-seventh graders untangle the mystery of Harmony's parentage and rescue her missing mother before it's too late?
Adventure, terror, family secrets and ancient powers: it's all waiting for them in the forest.
