Summary

Twelve-year-old Lin and her two new friends brave the wilderness to find a castle, prove a local legend, and discover the true meaning of home.

After living an RV with her house-flipping parents all her life, Lin Moser is not looking forward to being stuck in Newbridge, New Jersey for their longest stay yet. She finds out about a local legend: an ancient ruined castle in the woods that no one has been able to find. Determined to create her own adventure, Lin sets off, braving the wilderness with her two new friends, seeking the castle, and maybe discovering a new idea of home along the way. -- adapted from jacket
