What's a typical mid-west girl from Pacific, Missouri to do during her summer vacation when her brother has been abducted, her new best friend is a fish, her frenemy may be playing with fire, and her secret crush is getting burned? She goes out and finds more drama, of course! Molly's adventure began when she learned that her brother's disappearance was more complicated than presumed. She also discovered that mermaids, witches, and the boogeyman may in fact, be real. But she can't tell her parents...not yet! The Locals: Legends of the Earth, book two in the trilogy, is for anyone who has become bored with the same old cliché of characters. It combines local American legends, history, geography, and even politics all in one young-adult adventure. It invites you to take a magical journey and to detox your soul by tagging along with Molly, Ona, Foxx, and even Gresham!
