Book Summary: Amari and the Night Brothers

In the impoverished Rosewood housing projects, Quinton Peters stood out as the epitome of promise, celebrated for his remarkable achievements, including full scholarship offers from two prestigious Ivy League institutions. However, when he unexpectedly vanishes, his younger sister, Amari Peters, a 13-year-old with a fierce determination, struggles to comprehend the lack of media attention surrounding his disappearance. Why is his story absent from the headlines? Why do the authorities jump to the conclusion that he was involved in illicit activities?

As Amari delves deeper into her brother’s past, she stumbles upon a mysterious briefcase hidden in Quinton’s old closet—a briefcase intended solely for her discovery. Within it lies a revelation: Quinton had secrets far beyond her imagination. He has left behind a nomination for a summer tryout at the enigmatic Bureau of Supernatural Affairs. Amari becomes convinced that uncovering the truth about her brother’s fate is intricately linked to this hidden world, which challenges her to confront the existence of fantastical beings like mermaids, dwarves, yetis, and magicians. This revelation becomes even more tangible when she finds herself sharing her living space with a weredragon.

Competing against some of the nation’s elite youths—who possess lifelong knowledge of the supernatural realm—Amari faces daunting challenges. These peers effortlessly tackle questions about the Great Beasts of the Atlantic and the age of Merlin. Navigating the Bureau itself presents obstacles, with signs leading her to locations like the Department of Hidden Places, often leaving her bewildered. To complicate matters further, each trainee is endowed with a supernatural talent, yet Amari discovers she has been assigned an illegal ability, setting her apart in ways she never wished.

As an insidious magician threatens the stability of the supernatural community and her peers regard her with suspicion, Amari finds herself isolated in a world that grows increasingly perilous. With the stakes rising, she understands the urgency of succeeding in the three critical tryouts; failure means she may never uncover the truth behind Quinton’s disappearance.
