A parent might reach for this book when their child is grappling with the burden of a secret or feeling an intense, almost parental sense of responsibility for a younger sibling's safety. The story follows twelve-year-old Savannah as she tries to protect her sleepwalking brother, Poco, whom she suspects might be responsible for a series of mysterious fires on their North Carolina island. This suspenseful mystery serves as a conduit for exploring the weight of family loyalty and the fear that someone we love might be doing something wrong. It is particularly appropriate for middle-grade readers who are beginning to navigate complex moral dilemmas and the anxiety of things they cannot control. Parents will appreciate how the book validates a child's internal worry while ultimately guiding them toward the importance of seeking adult support.
