Until now, explosions, lies, and espionage have never been a regular part of his life. Blake Cavanaugh walks through his mundane, ordered life day after predictable day. His career as a human resource employee in a calm, uneventful West Texas CIA office is tidy and safe...that is until he overhears a whisper that draws him into a path of discovery: He is captivated by her name. Has his past caught up with him? As he gets deeper and deeper into the Firefly documents, he is instinctively drawn to the familiar symbols, names, and places that conjure up powerful emotions he can’t shake. Could it be her? He is chased by this mystery across three continents into a secret world that challenges every fiber of his predictable life as he draws upon his untested skills in handling guns and deciphering codes.

But Peter is a Miniature Giant. They’ve always been told that a Miniature Giant is nothing but a Future Giant, but this one just isn’t quite as big or as scary as the other Giants. Peter has a dream of his own, as well as memories to escape. He is overwhelmed with sadness, and a summer with his new unlikely friends Firefly and Cricket might be just what he needs. Can these friends’ dreams help them overcome the past? Firefly Hollow is nothing short of enchanting, reminding us all that the very best friend is the one who encourages you to achieve your dreams.
