About this ebook

Benson Fisher thought that a scholarship to Maxfield Academy would be the ticket out of his dead-end life.

He was wrong.

Now he’s trapped in a school that’s surrounded by a razor-wire fence. A school where video cameras monitor his every move. Where there are no adults. Where the kids have split into groups in order to survive.

Where breaking the rules equals death.

But when Benson stumbles upon the school’s real secret, he realizes that playing by the rules could spell a fate worse than death, and that escape—his only real hope for survival—may be impossible.

My absolute favorite fictional book! I asked my librarian if she has the sequel in the library and she said no and I was so bummed. Hopefully one day I'll find the sequel and find out what happens next!

Best book I've ever read just finished it. It's about a boy who's trapped in a school like prison we're you can't escape and if you try you get sent to detention. Would recommend to everyone. Almost my whole class has read this book. They all loved it
