Project Mercury: A Middle Grade Mystery About an Army Brat and His Nemesis on a Military Base Near Area 51 for Kids (Ages 8-12)

Ike Pressure is an Army brat. Which, if you ask him, is not an insult. His mom’s new job is in Mercury, Nevada, on a secretive military base close to Area 51. What’s more, his childhood friend, Eesha Webb, and her family are about to move there too. Spoiler alert: Ike and Eesha aren’t really best buds, even though their parents think so. They used to play together when they were little kids, but now she's more like his nemesis. Still, it’s clear to both of them that something mysterious is happening on the base—but what could it be? Eesha is convinced it has to do with aliens, but Ike isn’t so sure. What they don’t know is that the stakes are actually much higher than they could have imagined—and Ike’s mom might be in more danger than she has ever faced. Will Ike and Eesha be able to get over their differences and work together to unravel the secrets of Project Mercury? Frenemies to Allies: He's a skeptic, she's a believer. Ike and Eesha used to be friends, but now they can barely stand each other. Can they team up before it's too late? Area 51 Mystery: Welcome to Mercury, Nevada—a top-secret military base where strange lights fill the sky and every adult has something to hide. A Race Against Time: The conspiracy on the base is bigger than they ever imagined, and now Ike's mom is caught in the middle. Saving her means trusting each other completely.
