Small town. Epic adventure. What's outside Pleasant Grove? Welcome to Pleasant Grove, a quiet small town where neighbor helps neighbor and doors are left unlocked at night-an unspoiled paradise with one peculiar feature: It's enclosed by a glass dome. No one can leave. No one can enter. No one can survive beyond the dome. But then, a visitor arrives from the outside. When 12-year-old Agnes Goodwin discovers a strange boy with no memory, she teams up with her best friends to unravel the mystery. Their extraordinary adventure will uncover a long-buried secret so monstrous it will threaten everything they know...and everyone they love.
