Morales is a misfit. His parents think he’s just shy; his friends want him

world is turned upside-down when a mysterious crater in the desert opens a

is, and what it means to be the “Heir to Fire,” in this compelling blend of
fantasy and horror.

debut looks like a major dud. And, just when he thinks things can’t get any
worse, they do. Some of the scouts find an old cabin in the woods, and near

the grave are unleashed, and Skeeter’s bad night goes into overdrive!
