Book excerpt: A dead Ojibwa, a local legend, and a secret that rocks the small communities of the Upper Peninsula. Struggling to settle into their new school after moving to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, junior Shannon Colfax finds herself entangled in a feud with popular football jock Brent Duray after he bullies her autistic twin brother, Shane. When an unlikely savior comes to her rescue-Brent's friend, Cody Williams-the jock and his entourage devise an immediate retaliation plan: Duray will leave Shane alone if Shannon and Cody survive the infamous Paulding Light Challenge on Halloween night. Desperate for vindication, Shannon and Cody take the dare. As they hike through the Ottawa National Forest in search of a "ghostly" American Indian chief that supposedly haunts the woods, they veer off the path, only to discover a dead Ojibwa man-and a sordid secret that spans across the communities across the U.P. With Shane's savant computer skills, Shannon and Cody gather as much proof as they can to share with Cody's father, the county sheriff. Their snooping sets off a whirlwind of panic, and they find themselves trapped in dangerous game of cat and mouse with the real "spirits" of the forest. Attempting to beat them at their own game, the three friends are kidnapped. Can the true spirits of the Northwoods help guide them safely home so they can finally reveal the truth?
