Best-selling author Rick Riordan presents best-selling YA author
Roseanne A. Brown's vampire slayer adventure influenced by Ghanaian
folklore.
For most kids, catching fireflies is a fun summer activity. For
twelve-year-old Serwa Boateng, it's a matter of life and death. That's
because Serwa, a Slayer, and knows that some fireflies are really adze,
shapeshifting vampires from the forests of Southeastern Ghana.
When an adze infiltrates her school, it's up to her to whip some of her
classmates into fighting shape before they all become firefly food. And
when she uncovers a secret that upends everything she thought she knew
about her family, Serwa will have to decide which side of
herself--normal girl or Slayer--is the right one.
