Chapter 1 Where IS Nick My big brother Cruz and I have been stuck at Camp Nowhere for five long days It feels like five whole lifetimes
This has got to be the worst place in the world Every morning at four forty-five Counselor Bob hoists the flag up the flagpole Then he pulls out his bugle and plays The Star-Spangled Banner
For every note he plays correctly he plays three out of tune That’s it I’m going to throttle him Cruz groans from his bunk I really mean it this time Cruz isn’t a morning person
