“In one of those rare sequels that surpass the original, Shusterman delivers thrilling suspense.”—Kirkus Reviews
The Shadow Club doesn't exist anymore. The group of second-best kids used to play anonymous practical jokes on their rivals, until things spiraled out of control. Now Jared and the ex-Shadow Club members are having a hard time shaking their reputation. Things only get worse when Alec Smartz, the new golden boy at school, is the victim of a series of nasty pranks, and everyone’s convinced Jared is to blame.
Abandoned by his former club members and determined to prove his innocence, Jared is forced to flush out the culprit alone and soon becomes wrapped up in a nightmare worse than anything the Shadow Club ever caused.
