“A fast-paced, claustrophobic thrill ride of a story that’s perfect for reading on vacation . . . unless, of course, you’re flying there.”—Ginny Myers Sain, New York Times bestselling author of Dark and Shallow Lies
“This novel will thrill those curious about the dark side of human nature and what it means to be a survivor.”—Booklist
Eight hours. Twelve contestants. A flight none of them might survive.
Seventeen-year-old Emily Walters has a secret. In fact, she has so many she’s basically lying to everyone around her. Her most shameful secret places her on a jet to Paris along with eleven other teens from private schools across the US to compete for a prestigious scholarship. The cash prize will not only cover tuition to the college of Emily’s choice but also lift her and her mother out of poverty.
But almost from the moment she and the other contestants board the plane, things begin to go wrong, and it is clear somebody will do anything to win. Between dealing with her best friend’s flirty boyfriend and hiding her own dark secrets, Emily’s not sure how she’ll survive the contest, much less the flight. Especially when people start dying . . .
As loyalties shift and secrets are revealed, Emily must figure out who to trust and who’s trying to kill them all before she becomes the next victim.
