With the help of runaway, Tyler Briggs, Lizzie launches an investigation into the sudden deaths of resident wolves and discovers a world of adventure and friendship.

Jason Gorman, nature preserve manager for the Finger Lakes Land Trust, will be available to answer questions about preservation and natural area advocacy.
