Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a science experiment?
One fifth grader is about to find out…
Britton is a curious kid with a passion for science, critters, and bugs. She may not have a ton of friends, but with an abundance of fireflies to collect and wildlife to explore on her grandparents’ farm—her favorite place in the world—who has time for friends, anyway?
Then Britton’s grandpa’s dog goes missing, and when strange things start to happen, Britton gets her first hint that the comfortable country farm she loves may not be everything it seems. And when she takes it upon herself to go searching for the missing pooch, she finds much more than she’s looking for…
Britton soon learns how mysterious the woods and the farm really are—and her discovery disturbs her very grasp on the world around her. Will Britton’s fascination with fireflies lead her into catastrophe, or will she manage to free herself and find safety before it’s too late?
