Overview

In Jason's world, money buys everything-including his place at London's elite St Mary's sixth form college, where he coasts through classes while his parents' ""donations"" keep him enrolled. Eva, on the other hand, earned her scholarship through hard work, enduring daily reminders that she doesn't belong among her wealthy peers. When Jason's attempt to skip class backfires spectacularly, he and Eva find themselves thrown into an alternate London where everything they know about social status is reversed. Here, your worth isn't measured by your bank account, but by your knowledge and intellectual curiosity. As Eva thrives in this new reality, Jason discovers something unsettling: seven people died in freak accidents the day they arrived. Convinced their presence somehow caused these deaths, he starts digging-only to uncover two secret societies with opposing visions. One protects the foundations of this knowledge-based society, while the other secretly plots to transform it into a world where money determines status. With lives at stake, Jason and Eva must overcome their mutual dislike to uncover the truth. And that mysterious boy with the captivating smile? He might just hold the answers Jason needs-if Jason can trust him.

Reviews

""This is a splendid book. It is outside of my regular genres but these pages certainly have mystery, suspense and a thrill. The characters are complex and the story is thought-provoking. It is a page-turner and I often found myself thinking I'd just read one more chapter! It is also a good example of how fiction can transport you to another place and return you home a little more enlightened."" Grove B., LibraryThing Early Reviewer
