"For fans of Small Spaces and Mary Downing Hahn, a truly chilling (and historically inspired) ghost story from the award-winning author of The Forgotten Girl and The Girl in the Lake. Two friends must dig into their town's forgotten past and uncover the buried truth -- before their whole town goes up in flames.
Carter tries his best -- he really does -- but he's always getting in trouble at school. Still, he's determined to ace his history project, and luckily, he gets to partner with his BFF, Gianna.
Carter and Gianna are in the library to start their research when the lights flicker and a stack of books falls off a shelf! Everywhere they go, spooky things continue to happen, going quickly from weird to downright dangerous, until a few days later, Carter's notebook bursts into flames in the middle of class!
They are determined to figure out what's going on -- but to make matters worse, Carter keeps getting blamed for the creepy events. People think he's the one setting the fires! But Carter and Gianna are becoming certain that these are no normal fires... Something terrible once happened where the library now stands, and someone's trying to send them a message about it.
Can these best friends dig into their town's past and stop the strange occurrences before they get any worse? If they're too late, their whole town might go up in flames...
With her signature mix of history and bone-chilling ghost story, this is India Hill Brown at her best."
"From USA Today bestselling author Margot Hunt comes the chilling tale of what happens when a family besieged by a storm must play host to uninvited guests.
When a Category 5 hurricane is poised to hit their coastal Florida town, the Davies family takes refuge in their waterfront manse. Marlowe, Lee, and their teenage twins invite their close friends to wait out the storm in comfort and style.
Uninvited are the three strangers who dock on the family’s shore right before the storm descends. Brothers Jason and Bo—and Bo’s girlfriend, Darcy—are a charming, helpful trio in need of a safe haven that the family is only too happy to provide.
But as the storm outside grows more threatening, so does the tension in the house.
Soon, the lines between family, friends, and strangers blur. Danger mounts with every pointed finger and broken confidence, and long-held secrets are revealed one after another until only one truth remains: not everyone is going to make it out alive."
"In a modern mega-city built around dragons, one boy gets caught up in the world of underground dragon battles and a high-stakes gang war that could tear his family apart.
Banished from Drakopolis to the desolate frontier town of Glassblower’s Gulch, Abel and his family must face a harsh new reality: life without dragons.
Far from the lights and lizards of the megacity, Abel's new home effectively bans the great beasts. Anyone caught smuggling dragons is hauled away by the ruthless sheriff and her fearsome deputies. They have the only dragons in town, and they run the dreaded dragon rodeo, which pits those who fall afoul of the sheriff’s “justice” against a wild dragon in a competition for their freedom. It's dragon versus human and only one can win."
"In a modern mega-city built around dragons, one boy gets caught up in the world of underground dragon battles and a high-stakes gang war that could tear his family apart.
In the city of Drakopolis, dragons and humans have co-existed for centuries. Dragons burn the city's garbage, taxi its busy citizens from place to place, and even compete in vicious underground battles for ganglike kins.
But the dragons also compete in legal sports, like the spectacular aerial races that draw in cheering crowds by the thousands.
Abel is at just such a race when he witnesses something terrible. A long-shot competitor surprises the crowd by winning the relay -- but then flies into a destructive rage! Someone in the city is experimenting on dragons, dosing them with a dangerous serum that provides speed and strength at the cost of the dragons' health.
Abel must find out who's behind the experiments and end them. But with his sister working for the kins, and his brother in the city's secret police, will that mean he has to face off against his own family?"
"In the final riveting installment of C. T. Rwizi’s Scarlet Odyssey series, Salo’s death leaves his friends reeling—and a magical world in turmoil.
Salo is dead—and the world he left behind is at war.
In the midst of their grief, Salo’s closest clan members begin to experience strange phenomena: visions visit one, while seizures plague another. The clan’s new mystic divines that an arcane signal from the far west is calling, so they set out toward the desert—and encounter a caravan of travelers following the same mysterious call.
Meanwhile, Salo’s loyal allies Ilapara and Tuk embark on a bold mission to raise Salo from the dead. And their sorcery works…or seems to. While the resurrected Salo ignores his friends’ warnings and forms dark alliances, Ilapara and Tuk struggle with their growing unease, even as they follow Salo westward on a quest in which the fate of the world hangs in the balance.
With magic spiraling into mayhem, is this the end of Salo’s saga—or an epic new beginning?"
