    About this ebook

    The Firebird Scouts of Wayne County, Detroit, Michigan. Somehow or another, they've managed to survive an attack from a werewolf in their last adventure, as well as each other’s competing personalities.

    But this time, when they have to overcome a garden that literally takes on a life of its own, can they put their differences aside, again, to overcome it? Or will it eat them before they can eat it?

    Another short story outing for The Firebird Scouts, first seen in Motor City Wolf.
