This Camp Is Doomed

This Camp Is Doomed Synopsis

It's tradition at Dennith Grange that the sixth graders go on a week-long camp, to mark the time when they are just beginning to come into their powers. Teacher Michael Berg has been reluctantly tasked with taking ten misfit students to the run-down and unpopular Camp Buttress. Seven students know what their power is, or at least the category. This means three of the students don't know and could gain their power at any moment. What if one of them can generate a stench that renders everyone unconscious? Or grows poisonous snakes from their head? As the week of weird activities and power mishaps progresses, relationships bloom and fracture, and a mystery reveals itself. Why have the camp leaders left their inexperienced teenage daughter Aleesia in charge? Why doesn't decrepit Grandma Daizie ever speak, and how come she keeps appearing in unexpected places? And who is the eleventh child in the photograph Michael takes of the students? The students decide to take matters into their own hands and embark on an adventure that leads them into the forest, where they discover the deep, dark secrets of Camp Buttress and the family who run it. Now they just need to survive to tell the tale . . .
