And that's exactly where this yearbook-worthy graphic novel series opener begins: with reinventing yourself, drama, popularity, and the friends who see you through.Seventh-grader Viv never looks forward to picture day.

It’s exactly how she dreamed of reinventing herself…right?In the tradition of modern classics like Vera Brosgol's Be Prepared, Svetlana Chmakova's Aw

To stop him, the siblings embark on a dangerous journey across the globe -- a quest that brings them ever closer to the truth about their family, and their links to a secret order that has existed since the time of the pharaohs.
