National Book Award nominee Lisa Graff returns readers to the magical
world of A Tangle of Knots**, where a camp for Talented kids
just might be a recipe for disaster.**
It's summertime and everyone is heading off to camp. For kids with
special Talents, the place to be is Camp Atropos, to sing songs by the
campfire, practice for the Talent show, and take some nice long dips in
the lake. But what the kids don't realize is that they've been gathered
for a reason--one that the camp's director wants to keep hidden at all
costs. Meanwhile, a jar filled with a mysterious Talent has been dropped
to the bottom of the lake, and strange things have begun to happen.
Dozens of seemingly empty jars have been washing up on the shoreline,
Talents are getting swapped, and memories are ripped from one camper's
head and placed into another. Almost no one knows why.
