Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 256 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Jeremy Wilson and Matt Carver are about as different as two grade-nine boys can be.

Matt has little confidence and few friends.

Jeremy is a school terrorist, a bully. Matt is his favourite target. With one fateful decision, however, Jeremy suddenly becomes the target of a much more sophisticated terrorist, a drug dealer who not only threatens him but also uses his sister to demand compliance in a serious world of drugs, blackmail, and crime. In the course of one day, a bizarre set of circumstances forces Jeremy and Matt together. They rather reluctantly join forces to expose the egocentric, vicious Tim Halliday who uses his charm, his looks, and his status as a star athlete to hide his involvement in the lucrative drug trade that has infiltrated Madison Collegiate.
