When the lanterns go dark, Pinewood's secrets start to glow.

Twelve-year-old Tori and her clever black cat, Peebly, are ready to enjoy Pinewood's annual Firefly Festival—a summer night of music, food, and glowing lanterns. But when the lantern contest goes haywire, prizes disappear, and rumors swirl, the festival's crown jewel turns into chaos.

With her friends Riley, Owen, and Junior Detective Avery at her side, Tori follows a trail of muddy footprints, broken lanterns, and suspicious whispers through the firefly meadow. The deeper she digs, the clearer it becomes: someone wants to ruin the entire festival—and frame an innocent kid for the crime.

Can Tori uncover the truth before the lights go out for good? Or will Pinewood's brightest night be remembered as its darkest?

Brimming with firefly-lit mystery, small-town charm, and the courage to tell the truth, The Firefly Festival Fiasco is perfect for fans of cozy whodunits, brave kid detectives, and cats with a knack for uncovering trouble.
