Rick Riordan Presents: Paola Santiago and the River of Tears-A Paola Santiago Novel Book 1

Pao organises a meet-up to test out her new telescope near the Gila, since it's the best stargazing spot. But when Emma never arrives and Pao sees a shadowy figure in the reeds, it seems like maybe her mum was right...
