If you've ever been lucky enough to experience the Public School
System in suburban America, then you will empathize with Marty
Mason and delight at his teenage experiences in town of Kappaqua
Falls. While most people never have the opportunity to use what
they learned in High School, Marty leverages the teachings from his
classes in real time to outwit and defeat several abusive bullies.
His victory celebration is short lived as he is brought before the
ruthless Principal of the school and subjected to a ground-breaking
behavior modification treatment. Military high technology has
invaded the high school, and Marty is the unsuspecting first test
subject of a strange new supercomputer-driven brain stimulation
system. "FIRST CHANCE" provides exciting, page-turning
entertainment from the first page until the last.
His FIRST CHANCE May be his LAST From the sleepy city of
Merida, Mexico to the Castle of Kukulcan at the Mayan ruins of
Chichen-Itza on the Yucatan Peninsula, to the quaint town of
Kappaqua Falls, New York, FIRST CHANCE provides an entertaining and
suspenseful ride. First time author Mark Owen paints a visually
compelling tale of a teenager caught in the American Public School
system, struggling against his oppressors: Man and Machine.
