Synopsis "Ezra Puckett and the Threads of Lost Things"
Discover the Secret to Finding Everything... and the Enemy Who Wants to Bury It Forever.Ten-year-old Ezra Puckett is a dreamer in a small Ohio town, until he discovers he has a secret gift: he can "Tune In" to the emotional energy of lost objects, seeing their location through glowing, invisible "threads". When he confides in his best friends-the logical Maya and the empathic Levi-they not only believe him, but discover they can amplify his power by weaving their own threads together. Calling themselves the League of Lost and Found, they start small, finding lost toys and car keys. But their real adventure begins when their town's 100-year-old time capsule is stolen just weeks before the Bicentennial. A Centuries-Old Mystery is Calling.Their search leads them to a kind librarian, a centuries-old "sparkling legacy" hidden by a former student, and a heartbreaking culprit they never suspected. In the time capsule, they find the legacy: a pouch of magical "Finder" geodes and a silver key. This key unlocks a hidden box, revealing the truth: they have inherited a magical lineage called The Finders. But they aren't the only ones searching for this power. The Game of Lost and Found Just Got Dangerous.Suddenly ambushed by their ancient rivals, the Blackwood family-or the "Severers"-the League is stripped of their geodes, left only with a 2000-year-old map and a cryptic "curse tablet". Now, the League must race against the Severers, follow a forgotten map, find the true treasure, and dodge their increasingly furious parents who are threatening to ground them for life. Will Ezra, Maya, and Levi find the ancient power, and prove that a group of kids with a strange gift can change their world? Perfect for readers who love a mix of magical realism, mystery, and heart.
