About this audiobook
From acclaimed author Kate Messner comes the powerful story of a young girl with the courage to make her voice heard, set against the backdrop of a summertime mystery. When Mia moves to Vermont the summer after seventh grade, she's recovering from the broken arm she got falling off a balance beam. And packed away in the moving boxes under her clothes and gymnastics trophies is a secret she'd rather forget. Mia's change in scenery brings day camp, new friends, and time with her beloved grandmother. But Gram is convinced someone is trying to destroy her cricket farm. Is it sabotage or is Gram's thinking impaired from the stroke she suffered months ago? Mia and her friends set out to investigate, but can they uncover the truth in time to save Gram's farm? And will that discovery empower Mia to confront the secret she's been hiding--and find the courage she never knew she had? In a compelling story rich with friendship, science, and summer fun, a girl finds her voice while navigating the joys and challenges of growing up.

Mia has been hiding for so long she's not even sure who she is anymore. But with her grandmother's cricket farm in danger of shutting down, Mia is determined to find a way to help keep her dreams alive. This is a lovely story of female empowerment and bravery. While discussing abuse and objectification, the focus on friendships, defying shame, and living a full and successful life make for a heartful story that will encourage those who have known similar circumstances to let their voices be heard.
