Book excerpt: Skip O'Rourke is dragged into one last con . . . but he doesn't know the con's on him in this funny, page-turning debut YA. Cameron Smith attends an elite boarding school, and he has just been accepted to Princeton University alongside his beautiful girlfriend, Claire. Life for Cameron would be perfect, except that Cameron Smith is actually Skip O'Rourke, and Skip O'Rourke ran away from his con artist family five years ago...along with $100,000 in "earnings." Hey, it's not cheap to live a crime-free life! But when his Uncle Wonderful tracks him down, Skip's given an ultimatum- come back to the family for one last con, or say good-bye to life as Cameron. Skip doesn't want to be a crook, but with Princeton and Claire hanging in the balance, he doesn't have a choice. "One last con" is easier said than done when Skip's family is just as merciless (and just as sleazy) as they've always been, and everyone around him seems to be lying. Skip may have given up on crime, but there's one lesson he hasn't forgotten- always know your mark. And if you don't know who your mark is...it's probably you. Witty and irresistibly readable, this standout debut will always keep you guessing.

Now a riddle hidden on a mysterious map could chart a course towards the truth and the missing royals in this historical fantasy that's perfect for fans of Rachel Hartman and Tamora Pierce. Eighteen years ago two princes of the island kingdom of St. John del Mar were kidnapped and murdered, a deadly plot by the rival kingdom of Mondrago. Everyone knows the story, but for Elias, Mercedes, and Ulises, the aftermath of that tragic day is deeply personal. Elias grew up without his father, who was killed trying to protect the princes. Mercedes is half-Mondragan, leaving her to grow up in the shadow of del Mar’s hate. And Ulises, as the youngest and only remaining prince, inherited the throne meant for his older brothers. Now, the three friends just want to move on with their lives. But when two maps surface—each with the same hidden riddle—troubling questions arise. What really happened to the young princes? And why do the maps look like they were drawn by Elias’s father, whose body was never found? To discover what really happened that fateful day, Elias, Mercedes, and Ulises must follow the clues hidden in the maps, uncovering long-held secrets and unimaginable betrayals along the way. But the truth is dangerous, and not everyone wants it to come out. Isle of Blood and Stone is a sweeping fantasy full of intrigue and schemes, romance and friendship, and fearless explorers searching for the truth.
