Twelve-year-old Esme and her best friend, Finch, discover dinosaur bones on her family's peach farm and are suddenly surrounded by people with nefarious motives.
After her grandfather died from a heart attack while driving his tractor on Solace Hill, twelve-year-old Esme avoids returning to that horrible spot. Then she follows her little brother, Bo, and her dog, Old Jack, up the hill while chasing fireflies, and she makes an incredible discovery—dinosaur bones peeking out underneath the abandoned tractor. The bones must be a message from her grandfather, a connection from beyond the grave. But when word gets out that the farm is hiding something valuable, reporters, researchers, and neighbors arrive in droves. Esme struggles to understand who has her best interests at heart, especially as the memory of her grandfather begins to slip away. Full of friendship and adventure, and featuring a palpable Texas setting, Finding Esme will appeal to all.
