IT'S A DEADLY GAME OF HIDE AND SEEK Liam Scott has joined Recce
Platoon. And it looks like he will be heading for Somalia. His
mission is to gather intelligence from behind enemy lines, carrying
out top-secret surveillance and dead letter drops. But he's new to
the game and there's a lot to learn. Soon Liam is monitoring a den
of Al-Shabaab militants and hunting a key terrorist target. Can
Recce Platoon find their man and get out undiscovered? If the
militants find them first, it's game over . . .
When a secret society has you in their sights, it can lead to
power, privilege... or death. It's been two weeks since Polly St.
James went missing. The police, the headmistress of Torrey-Wells
Academy, and even her parents have ruled her a runaway. But not
Maren, her best friend and roommate. She knows Polly had a secret
that she was about to share with Maren before she disappeared-
something to do with the elite, ultra-rich crowd at Torrey-Wells.
Then Maren finds an envelope hidden among Polly's things: an
invitation to the Gamemaster's Society. Do not tell anyone, it
says. Maren is certain her classmates in the Society know the truth
about what happened to Polly, though it's no easy feat to join.
Once Maren's made it through the treacherous initiation, she
discovers a world she never knew existed within her school, where
Society members compete in high-stakes games for unheard-of
rewards-Ivy League connections, privileges, favors. But Maren's
been drawn into a different game: for every win, she'll receive a
clue about Polly. And as Maren keeps winning, she begins to see
just how powerful the Society's game is-bigger and deadlier than
she ever imagined. They see, they know, they control. And they
kill.

completely enthralled."--Rory Power, New York Times-bestselling
author of Wilder Girls "A ghost story that will spook even the most
hardened grown-ups." --Entertainment Weekly After their
