But that’s only the second strangest thing happening inside the crumbling inner city school.Who’s responsible? That’s just what Drew and the rest of the Zero Avenue brats want to know, but are they ready for what they’ll find? Because finding out means unraveling the threads of a conspiracy that blurs the line between myth and science, and between friends and enemies. Because finding out draws them into an adventure that tests their character, and their loyalties to each other. Seeing Harley selected for the Vice-Principal’s Special Studies program triggers Drew’s suspicions—and his jealousy. Digging deeper, he traces the program’s tangled roots to clandestine research carried out during WWII. Driven by their sense of loyalty, Drew and the rest of the brats follow the program’s long shadow from the war’s twilight, to the present day and the abandoned amusement park where they get one last chance to right a wrong decades in the making.
