Bus Stop Dead Drop

Ninth Grade's crazy, it's supposed to be; everybody's just getting their act together. But Vanessa's new lab partner is more like a best girlfriend than a boy. They're both smart, and when they see people playing assassination games at the mall and passing coded messages, of COURSE they break the codes! But there's a real mystery here: Who's stalking them? How do they know so many details of their lives? Will the principal make good on his threat to expel them? Are they just in trouble, or mortal danger? Ness races to solve the mystery and save her best friend.
Bus Stop Dead Drop serves up suspense, romance, mystery, secret codes, cover stories, and answers the age-old question, "Can a transsexual win the Science Fair?"
