The legend of Bigfoot gets a bone-chilling update in this scary story about a young girl and her scout troop who are willing to brave the woods to find her missing friend when no one else will. Perfect for fans of Daka Hermon and Claribel A. Ortega!The wilderness is in Jennas blood. Her Pap was the first Black park ranger at Sturbridge Reservation, and she practically knows the Owlet Survival Handbook by heart. But shes never encountered a creature like the one that took her best friend Reese. Her parents dont believe her; the police are worthless, following the wrong leads; and the media isnt connecting the dots between Reeses disappearance and a string of other attacks. Determined to save her friend, Jenna joins a new local scout troop, and ventures back into the woods.When the troop stumbles across suspicious signs: huge human-like footprints near the camp, scratch marks on trees, and ominous sounds from the woods, Jenna worries that whatever took Reese is back to take her too. Can she trust her new scout leader? And will her new friend Norrie-who makes her laugh and reminds her so much of Reese-believe her?After the unthinkable happens, the scouts, armed with their wits and toiletries, band together to fight the monster and survive the night.
