A scandal rocks a prestigious middle school, and two rival reporters are on the case!
Things don't usually come to a screeching halt at the RAT, also known as Ridgewood Arts & Technical School. But that's what happens when Headmistress Hardaway announces, "A scandal has rocked the fundraising committee!" Everyone's a suspect, and Hunter Jackson, student council special investigator, vows to root out the student responsible.

Ridgewood Roar news editor, Anthony Ravello, and the rogue, indie-press pioneer, Liberty Lennon, plan to do some journalistic digging of their own, racing to scoop the truth to their faithful readers. With the truth getting murkier by the day, all students at the RAT can do is gobble up news bytes and wash them down with locker-side gossip as they try to unmask the classmate responsible for the missing funds. For middle school readers (ages 10-14) who love a fast-paced mystery with ethical dilemmas and school drama.
