Description
Twelve-year-old St. George is thrust into an unexpected adventure while spending time with her father at a tree-planting camp nestled in the heart of the Canadian wilderness. Surrounded by towering trees and the sounds of nature, St. George is initially less than thrilled about the routine of camp life. Instead of chasing after mysteries from the comfort of her home, she finds herself balancing the responsibilities of babysitting her younger brother and the desire to unleash her inner detective.
As she observes her surroundings, St. George senses that more is happening beneath the surface of camp life. Curious incidents and peculiar behaviors of the camp staff pique her interest, igniting her detective instincts. Fueled by determination and a keen sense of observation, she embarks on a thrilling quest to unravel the secrets lurking around the camp, all while managing the challenges of family responsibilities and the antics of her brother.
With humor, cleverness, and a touch of sibling rivalry, St. George navigates the wilderness, balancing her roles as both a caretaker and a detective. Through her experiences, she learns that solving mysteries can come in many forms, and sometimes, the greatest discoveries arise from the everyday challenges of life.
