Description

How can you save your parents when you are an ocean away A propulsive international thriller from debut author Jody Feldman about an exchange program gone horribly wrong. Tess Morelli is living a dream- she was selected for an incredible exchange program in Rome, where she's spending a month taking in the beautiful sights and sounds and tastes of Italy. Her Italian counterpart, Sofia, is staying with Tess's family while she's away. Sure, her host parents barely speak English, but they seem cool enough. Until one day when Tess is woken up before dawn by her hosts, who are on a video chat with their daughter. Tess sees her sleeping parents on the screen-and Sofia brandishing a knife over them. Tess's parents will die, her hosts tell her, unless she follows their exact instructions. They've taken her passport, credit cards and phone, and Tess, at their mercy, must commit a series of crimes that add up to a shocking plan. Now Tess must find a way to outwit these criminals before she-and her family-end up dead.

Reviews

"An excellent choice for any young adult collection, this is also appropriate for mature middle school readers. Fans of mystery/thrillers with puzzles, such as Jennifer Lynn Barnes's The Inheritance Games, will devour this book." -- School Library Journal
