Contest

James's grandpa is dying. An experimental treatment might save him, but James's family can't afford it. Not unless he competes in and wins the Contest. Even though the tasks seem dangerous, James can't back out now, can he?

Ana has three choices: One, stay with abusive foster parents. Two, expose them and risk being separated from her sister. Or three, join the Contest, win the prize money, and escape together. No matter what, the odds are against her.

Colin wants out of the Contest. But the prize money would help his transgender sister afford surgery. Can Colin find out what the Benefactor is really up to without ruining his chances to win the Contest?

Maiv is the responsible one. She's not someone who'd get mixed up in something as risky as the Contest. But Maiv is not what she seems, and she's determined to uncover the Benefactor's secrets-before it's too late.

James, Ana, Colin, and Maiv are all competing in the Contest. Together, they may stand a chance of stopping the Benefactor's evil plot. But it's a race against the clock, and they have everything to lose.

But the huge prize would help her afford college and help her family make ends meet. The problem? The Contest is not what it seems. On the other hand, neither is Maiv. She's determined to uncover the Benefactor's secrets-before it's too late.
