Content descriptions
Summary, etc.: | "At the most elite private school in Washington, DC., whenever anyone has a problem that they need to go away, they hire Hana Yang Lerner. Hana is a fixer. She knows who to call, what to say, and how to make sure secrets stay where they belong--buried. She can fix anything. Except her own life, which was destroyed when her father, senator Skip Lerner, was arrested for an accident that left one woman nearly dead. Now Hana's reputation is ruined and her friends are gone. So when she gets a job from an anonymous client called 'Three' to follow her former best friend, Luce Herrera, Hana realizes this might be her way of getting back her old life. But the dangerous thing about digging is that you never know what you'll unearth. As Hana uncovers a dark truth about her supposedly flawless classmates, she's forced to face a secret of her own"-- |

After a costly scandal involving her ex-senator father, Hana's once flawless life atop the social scene of uber-elite St. Francis High crashed down. Now she resides on the fringes, occasionally dipping back in to "fix" problems (making sure secrets stay buried, managing reputations, pulling strings) in exchange for money. When she's contacted by a mysterious client offering a paycheck she can't refuse, Hana is tasked with delving into the underbelly of her community to expose a conspiracy that could rip her schoolâand what remains of her lifeâapart. Woon fuses a well-trod story depicting the secret lives of elite high-school teenagers with a hardboiled detective tale. The result is a hugely refreshing read. Full of twists and double-crosses, the story never settles into predictability. Even better is the strong voice of Hana, an unreliable narrator hiding the pain of her father's crime under a cool mercenary verve. Add to that a possible love interest in the form of James, school newspaper reporter turned Hana's "girl Friday," and this book has everything a fan of YA mystery could want. Grades 9-12.
