Secret of Spirit Lake
In The Secret of Spirit Lake, eleven-year-old Tyra is stuck spending the summer with her irascible Grandpa Rudy in a lakeside town where she’s the only black person (she’s adopted). Clearly this is going to be the worst summer ever. And a weird one, too. Every night, Rudy disappears into the woods, hauling tools and maps. He’s searching for something, and Tyra desperately wants to know what it is.
