Five teens are students at Rockland Academy, and they’re the only ones summoned to a meeting in an old building—when the roof caves in on them. They survive, but barely. It was a terrible accident. Or was it? Saralinda: “I’m a huge burden to my mother.” Caleb: “I’m a monster.” Kenyon: “My grandfather hates me.” Antoine: “My mother has already tried to kill me twice.” Evangeline: “I’ll be worth 40 million dollars on my birthday. Then, I fill out the papers to give it all to the Upper East Side Cat Society. Not a penny to my stepmother. Unless I die first—haha.” But their families can’t have banded together to kill them all. That’s crazy. Then another “accident” happens. Now they are four, and in a desperate race to escape the trap that’s squeezing shut around them. REVIEWS: “The trap is sprung. The hunt is on.

People are on the run, bodies are piling up, and murder is in the air. Up until the last moment, it’s not clear who is going to make it out alive. -Booklist

Download or read book Slow Dancing with the Devil written by Susan Bartz Herrick and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2024-02-08 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Susan Herrick's memoir follows the story of her beloved son and only child, Luke, through his struggle with opioid addiction, recovery and sobriety, and untimely and heartbreaking death. Luke suffered a near-fatal car accident that left him partially paralyzed and addicted to Oxycontin, the very drug that helped save his life. Susan turned to the streets to obtain Suboxone, a legal but medically restricted opioid blocker, in an attempt to save her son's life. Remembering this, she writes, "The day I became my son's drug dealer, we both died, in a way." This poignant and compelling memoir exposes the rampant prescribing of Oxycontin, upwards of 600mg daily in cases like Luke's, and the role overprescribing plays in the disease of Substance Use Disorder (SUD). Through Luke's story, the author addresses failed public policies, misguided medical practices, societal stigmas, and enabling tendencies of loved ones that hinder recovery for those afflicted with SUD.
