Summary

Valentina Salazar grew up as a monster protector until her father was killed during a rescue mission gone wrong. Her mother moved the family to a boring little town in upstate New York so the family can "retire", but Valentina still manages to stumble into trouble. Like, accidentally burning down the schoolyard while chasing a fire-breathing chipmunk. When a video of a mythical egg appears, Valentina convinces her older brother and sister to help her find and save it-- all while avoiding the monster hunters who want to destroy it.
