Book Synopsis



Thirteen-year-old Emma Murry has three goals for summer vacation: finish her art terms project, land an ollie, and help the environmental club save the monarchs.

But then her Instagram crush Jeb Scott and his celebrity dad Chester make a surprise visit to Black Mountain. At first, Emma is thrilled, then she overhears their plans to destroy the monarch butterfly garden to build a ski resort. She and her best friend Sophie add a new summer goal: STOP. THE. SCOTTS.

Ignoring Sophie's warnings, Emma makes friends with Jeb, convinced she can change his mind. So when Chester receives a mysterious death threat, Emma and Jeb team up to find the culprit. Emma slowly realizes people are not what they seem as she attempts to untangle friendships, organize a protest, and uncover the supernatural secrets hiding on the mountain.

She must go through her own metamorphosis by overcoming her fears and facing what she dreads. If she fails, she could jeopardize everything-butterflies, friendships, and her family.

Review Quotes




"... Rebecca Laxton delivers a diverting, environment-friendly mystery ..."

-Kirkus Reviews


"I really loved this story! It has so many of the things I love

about middle grade-growing up, friendship, first crushes,

learning to stand up for causes, and a touch of magic!"

-Hannah VanVels Ausbury, Book Riot


"I love the way the book weaves together magic, modern tech kids

are used to, and STEAM themes. It's really masterful ...

The setting is just delightful. It makes me so happy to

see the South portrayed in a way that shows off its charm."

-Jeni Chappelle, editor, and host Story Chat Radio
