Between cross-country, new friendships, and her growing feelings for senior runner Tim O'Connor, she has enough to worry about.Then strange reports begin appearing across the country.Hospitals are discovering patients with blood types that don't match anything in their databases-and some of the samples have an unexplained green tint. Even more disturbing, people connected to the mysterious blood are beginning to disappear.As Melanie becomes drawn deeper into the mystery, she starts noticing things about the people closest to her that don't quite add up. Tim seems to be hiding something. Her friend Jackie knows more than she is willing to admit. And the answers may be connected to a secret far bigger than anything Melanie could have imagined.Hidden within our solar system are five planets humans have never discovered. On one of them, a dying world called Threa has been studying Earth for decades. Its scientists have created human forms from Earth DNA and quietly sent them here to live among us.They are called Arrivals.And some of them have been here much longer than anyone realizes.Blending science fiction, mystery, friendship, and first love, Secrets from the Sky is the first book in The Youngest Arrivals series-a story about discovering where you come from, questioning what you've been told, and deciding for yourself where you truly belong.

Some secrets are hidden for a reason. Others are waiting to be discovered.
Fourteen-year-old Melanie Williams expects her first year of high school to be complicated. Between cross-country, new friendships, and her growing feelings for senior runner Tim O’Connor, she already has plenty to figure out.
Then strange reports begin appearing across the country.
Hospitals are discovering patients with blood types that don’t match anything in their databases. Some samples have an unexplained green tint. And even more disturbing—people connected to the mysterious blood are beginning to disappear.
Soon Melanie starts noticing things about the people closest to her that don’t quite add up. Tim is hiding something. Her best friend Jackie knows more than she’s willing to admit. And the truth may be connected to a secret far bigger than Melanie ever imagined.
Because somewhere beyond the sky, someone has been watching Earth for a very long time.
Secrets from the Sky is the first book in The Youngest Arrivals, a science-fiction mystery about friendship, first love, hidden identities, and discovering that where you come from doesn’t always determine where you belong.
