First Light

When a mysterious note falls from Leo Morales’s locker, it leads him and two classmates to Ziggy’s Skate & Drone — a shop full of sparks, questions, and the kind of challenge that can change everything. What begins as one strange invitation becomes something much bigger: a team, a friendship, and a place where kids who feel overlooked begin to discover that their strengths matter.

As Leo, Jada, and Max begin to uncover why they were chosen, they learn that real leadership is not about being the loudest, the flashiest, or the most polished. It is about building trust, making room for others, and choosing courage when it matters most.

First Light is the opening book of The Beacon Keepers, a middle-grade series about what it takes to build something real: a team, a friendship, a place where everyone belongs. No exceptions.
