Pass, and have it made--fail, and suffer the consequences. A master of teen thrillers tests readers' courage in an edge-of-your-seat novel that echoes the fears of exam-takers everywhere.
Ann, a teenage girl living in the security-obsessed, elitist United States of the very near future, is threatened on her way home from school by a mysterious man on a black motorcycle. Soon, she and a new friend are caught up in a vast conspiracy of greed involving the megawealthy owner of a school testing company. Students who pass his test have it made; those who don't disappear . . . or worse. Will Ann be next?
For all those who suspect standardized tests are an evil conspiracy, here's an edge-of-your-seat thriller that really satisfies.
