Lamar Giles takes listeners on a wild and dark ride in this contemporary Witness Protection thriller, perfect for fans of James Patterson, Harlan Coben, and John Grisham.

Nick Pearson is hiding in plain sight. In fact, his name isn't really Nick Pearson. He shouldn't tell you his real name, his real hometown, or why his family just moved to Stepton, Virginia. And he definitely shouldn't tell you about his friend Eli Cruz and the major conspiracy Eli was uncovering when he died. About how Nick had to choose between solving Eli's murder with his hot sister, Reya, and "staying low-key" like the Program said to do.

But he's going to tell you—unless he gets caught first. . . .

This is my second read from Lamar Giles, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The author has an excellent way with words, and I laughed out loud on multiple occasions.

The premise of the story is different from anything I've read or seen in a movie. I was also pleasantly surprised that "Chidi" from "The Good Place" was the narrator.

I recommend this novel.

Great story for teens and adults

I'll confess that I purchased this book only to listen to William Harper (sorry Mr. Giles!) but the story is pretty good. I'm not a big fan of YA novels, but the story was good nonetheless and the protagonist, Nick was enjoyable.

Chidi narrates this audio book!

it felt like a nerdy spin on a gangsta story. there were many unrealistic parts and the mysteries were unfolded like an episode of Scooby Doo.

this concept had so much more potential
