Review

This is a fun adventure, filled with mystery, friendship and secret societies!!! It is great for boys and girls 10 and up!

This book is about Weatherby, a young girl trying to survive middle school life. When she gets a scholarship to Boston School, she knows this is her ticket to success! Except… she accidentally cheated on her sailing to get in. And someone knows… A secret society that all the big names are in. With clues, riddles and blackmail, Weatherby has to figure out how to belong, and she has to work together with the rich snot Jack Hunt to solve the case…

This was a really fun and interesting book! Filled with adventure, betrayal and blackmail, it is a great mystery for boys and girls 10 and up. I loved the characters, and the story was pretty simple, while still being fun and clean for kids!!! There is bullying in the book. Mention of cheating, lying, blackmail and such. Mention of pollution that’s making people sick.

Overall, I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait for book 2!!!!! Happy Reading! -The Young Llama Reader.

Pros

  • A fun adventure!!!
  • Great for kids 10 and up!

Cons

  • Bullying…

Weatherby is a fish out of water. When she lands a scholarship to the prestigious Boston School, she’s excited to be in the same world as her dad, whom she’s never met, and make real friends. But Weatherby has a secret she’ll risk everything to protect, one that could destroy her new life.

Every member of Jack’s wealthy and privileged family has made their mark at the Boston School. Everyone, that is, except for Jack, who is entirely mediocre. He’s desperate to prove his worth to his influential father. But Jack has a secret of his own . . . one with the power to ruin everything.

When the money for their school trip to a private island―exclusive to Boston students―is stolen, Jack and Weatherby are invited to play a high-stakes game and solve the mystery of the missing money. If they win, they’ll be selected to join the oldest, most powerful secret society in the world―and they’ll be Boston royalty forever. If they lose . . . well, they better not lose.
