Mortimer Bray is not okay.
It seems like everything in his life is changing for the worse. After his own much-loved dog dies, he canāt bring himself to carry on with his dog-walking business; thereās a strange new girl whoās moved into the house next door; and suddenly thereās a buzzing feeling of anxiety in his head and heart when heās faced with something new.
His neighborhood, Townsend Heights, used to feel like the most comfortable place in the world. But lately, it seems like everyone is arguing, and thereās uncertainty around every corner.
The neighborhood's only vacant lot is somehow behind it all,Ā Mortimer is sure of that much. If he can unearth the lot's secret history, he just might stop the Heights from unravelingĀ completely.
Mortimer canāt save Townsend Heights on his own. But when it comes to community, youāre never truly on your ownānot as long as youāre willing to learn from the past, in order to do better in the future.Ā
