Knowledge is power, but secrets can kill . . .
For Tess Kendrick, a student at the elite Hardwicke School, making problems disappear runs in the family. But Tess has another legacy, too, one that involves power and the making of political dynasties. When Tess is asked to run a classmate's campaign for student council, she agrees. But when the candidates are the children of Washington D.C. elite, even a high school election can have life-shattering consequences.
What starts out as a friendly competition soon turns into a deadly struggle for control. Tess knows better than most that power is currency, but she's about to discover firsthand that power always comes with a price and no one can be trusted . . .

Critic reviews
Barnes is a master of mystery.
Barnes paints a convincing behind-the-scenes picture of national politics, and the social scene in the Hardwicke School mirrors the power-play atmosphere. . . . [R]eaders will find plenty to enjoy with the interesting characters . . . Intriguing.
You won't be able to put it down until the last page.
This book is riveting. . . . Recommended for all public and high school libraries.
