I knew things were getting weird when I saw my best friend's face in the campfire. I didn't realize how weird until the campfire followed me home . . .
Thirteen-year-old Samantha "Sam" MacReady is nervous about the start of Grade 8, especially science class, which isn't too surprising: last year, her Grade 7 science class mysteriously disappeared on the way to a field trip she missed out on.
But when her best friend, Lorenzo--who no one has seen since he got on the bus with the rest of that class--suddenly appears in a campfire, she moves from nervous to freaked out. She teams up with Meg LeBlanc, the sole student survivor of what all adults refer to as "The Tragedy," to uncover just what went on that day and why Lorenzo is now showing up in her back yard made entirely of flames.
What the two girls find out is far freakier and scarier than they ever imagined. Sam and Meg must use all their grit and intelligence to save the day and free their friends from magical enslavement . . . or fall victim to the very same fate.
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
