Amari sabe tres cosas:

Su hermano Quinton ha desaparecido.
Nadie quiere hablar sobre el asunto.
Una misteriosa invitación es su única pista.

La invitación es para una prueba en la Agencia de Investigadores Sobrenaturales y es una oportunidad para descubrir qué le pasó a Quinton. Pero ¿cómo se las arreglará en un mundo donde las sirenas, los alienígenas y la magia son reales? ¡Y con una compañera de habitación que es una niña dragón!

Rodeada de peligros, entre ellos un mago que amenaza con destruir a todas las criaturas sobrenaturales, Amari deberá confiar más que nunca en sus amigos y demostrar, de una vez por todas, su verdadero valor.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

New York Times bestseller!

Artemis Fowl meets Men in Black in this exhilarating debut middle grade fantasy, the first in a series filled with #blackgirlmagic. Perfect for fans of Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky, the Percy Jackson series, and Nevermoor.

Amari Peters has never stopped believing her missing brother, Quinton, is alive. Not even when the police told her otherwise, or when she got in trouble for standing up to bullies who said he was gone for good.

So when she finds a ticking briefcase in his closet, containing a nomination for a summer tryout at the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, she’s certain the secretive organization holds the key to locating Quinton—if only she can wrap her head around the idea of magicians, fairies, aliens, and other supernatural creatures all being real.

Now she must compete for a spot against kids who’ve known about magic their whole lives. No matter how hard she tries, Amari can’t seem to escape their intense doubt and scrutiny—especially once her supernaturally enhanced talent is deemed “illegal.” With an evil magician threatening the supernatural world, and her own classmates thinking she’s an enemy, Amari has never felt more alone. But if she doesn’t stick it out and pass the tryouts, she may never find out what happened to Quinton.

Plus don't miss the thrilling sequel, Amari and the Great Game!
