From the Back Cover
Something is amiss at the Menagerie. The goose who laid the golden eggs has been murdered--and all the evidence points to a dragon named Scratch.
Zoe Kahn is no stranger to the difficulties of caring for magical creatures, but even feeding deadly basilisks didn't prepare her for this crisis. Zoe and her classmate Logan are sure that the dragon is being framed, but unless they can prove he is innocent, Scratch will be executed. Worse yet, the Menagerie will be forced to shut down--which Logan and Zoe are starting to fear is exactly what someone wants. . . .
