Molly McBean and the Secret Cave

By Joanie Murray

“I often thought my red hair and dark green eyes made me stand out from the other kids, but not in a good way.” —Molly McBean.
All it takes is one run-away beagle and a mysterious cave to ignite twelve-year-old Molly McBean’s thirst for adventure and turn her world upside down. That’s when everything she never believed in forces her to think again.
From a fantastical waterfall to the sinister Minions of the Dark Forever and a boy named Ethan, Molly experiences one adventure after another and falls into more trouble than any country girl could imagine. To make matters even more difficult, her help is desperately needed to bring two cave worlds into balance.
With the assistance of her dog, Rip, and a singing sword, Molly overcomes her fears and becomes “Warrior” Molly within the cave walls. But battling the forces of evil can wear a girl out, not to mention get her grounded. Will Molly and Rip be able to conquer evil, and keep her parents from finding out the truth?
One thing is certain—Molly’s life will never be the same again.
