But if she doesn’t stick it out and pass the tryouts, she may never find out what happened to Quinton.Details about the book are being kept out of the sun, but it is known to be a middle-grade, contemporary real-world fantasy centered on a black girl who goes on a journey in which she discovers her hidden powers. No matter how hard she tries, Amari can’t seem to escape their intense doubt and scrutiny-especially once her supernaturally enhanced talent is deemed “illegal.” With an evil magician threatening the supernatural world, and her own classmates thinking she’s an enemy, Amari has never felt more alone. Now she must compete for a spot against kids who’ve known about magic their whole lives. So when she finds a ticking briefcase in his closet, containing a nomination for a summer tryout at the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, she’s certain the secretive organization holds the key to locating Quinton-if only she can wrap her head around the idea of magicians, fairies, aliens, and other supernatural creatures all being real. Not even when the police told her otherwise, or when she got in trouble for standing up to bullies who said he was gone for good. **This is a digital PDF for single-family use.
