Derived from a Kirkus Review: If you were looking for a midyear replacement for a departing government teacher, you could hardly do better than Chris Brennan. He's clearly prepared to cover the courses in government and criminal justice; he's bright, attractive, and personable; he bonds instantly and effectively with students; and he can even serve as assistant coach of the school's faltering baseball team. Chris is clearly too good to be true. Only Abe Yomes, the gay African-American language-arts teacher, poses any threat, not because he sees through Chris but because he actually grew up in Wyoming, where Chris is pretending to be from. Soon enough, however, Mr. Y is dead, an apparent suicide, and Chris is ready to go ahead with his plan, which requires him to befriend a lonely, vulnerable boy and turn him into a patsy for a scheme that involves a rented truck and a mountain of ammonium chloride fertilizer. Readers can be assured that , they're still in for one thrilling ride on the roller coaster. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Artikel-Nr. 78109
