About This Book
An energetic teenager at a city high school becomes embroiled in a struggle over student government and school conduct, confronting a domineering peer whose behavior endangers the school's reputation. Teachers, students, and friends debate authority and responsibility while personal loyalties and a budding attachment complicate matters. A succession of trials—including a public confrontation, a threatening secret element, and a disastrous night—reveals character under pressure. Through courage, steady judgment, and the support of allies, the young protagonist passes these tests and gains acknowledgment for his integrity.
