Book Description
Ellis Landsman, a forester living in the Scottish Outlands in the 2020’s is shocked to find a wolf in his forest pawing at the ground. He is even more disturbed when he discovers that the wolf has uncovered the body of a young woman. He rescues the body and makes the long snow-covered journey to Glasgow to report the death and hand the body over to the Brigade, the semi militaristic security force that has replaced the police. Because of previous, bitter experience, Ellis doesn’t trust the Brigade to investigate the death and decides to try and find out for himself who the woman is, how she died and how she came to be buried on his land. He’s helped in his daunting task by Lorna who moves in with him at his remote forest home, active ‘oppositionists’ Gam and Colette and the mysterious Lemmy. And the wolf is never far away! Through his investigations, he finds out about a shadowy undercover security operation known as Darkstone and a web of events that reaches right to the heart of the Brigade. When Major Cormack, an up and coming power within the Brigade, becomes aware of Ellis’ activities he sees an opportunity to use the forester to further his own agenda. But all is not as it seems as Ellis struggles to track down the young woman’s killer. Will he succeed in his investigations or will the Brigade force him to abandon his mission and retreat back to the Outlands?

Book Description
Co-written by Newbery Honor-winning author Rajani LaRocca and Chris Baron, this page-turning novel is told through letters, e-mails, instant messages, and video chats between camp friends Tripti and Sam over their shared love of a book series and some mysterious rocks they brought home from summer camp. Eleven-year-olds Tripti Kapoor, a feisty "word nerd" from Massachusetts, and Sam Cohen, a shy, imaginative, budding geologist from California, are both miserable at Camp Dilloway, a summer camp in upstate New York. On the last night of camp, they follow a shooting star to a quiet creek. There they find two silvery rocks glowing in the night. They each take one home, and their long-distance friendship begins. It's soon clear that these are no ordinary rocks. They seem to move on their own, get strangely hot, and even take over Tripti and Sam's thoughts! Inspired by their mutual love of their favorite book series, The Dragon Gems, they dub the rocks Opal and Jasper, after the Dragon Gems in the books. But others are interested in the stones too--including the owner of Camp Dilloway, who hides a secret of his own. Tripti and Sam must crack the Dragon Gems' code and keep them out of Dilloway's clutches, all while navigating the rocky road of middle school friendships and learning to stand up for what is right.
