Listen to the Owl

Summer holidays, 1978.

The small rural village of Jennings Corners.

Addie O'Riley, a feisty 10-year-old show-off the adults call "trouble", and straight-as-an-arrow Christopher MacFarlane,11, who isn't sure he should be her friend but somehow can't resist.

It starts as a midnight adventure. It's meant to be a lark.

What they find is something that shocks them and makes them act immediately.

It could be deadly.

It could also be the best summer of their lives.
