With heart-pounding action and suspense, this young adult thriller delves into the dangerous world of a boot camp for troubled teens. "Henry packs her first [young adult] novel with the quick action and suspense that will keep even reluctant readers turning the pages."-- School Library Journal It was the rough hand over her mouth that convinced Cassie that what was happening was real. Without warning, Cassie is thrown in the back of a van and shipped off to Peaceful Cove, a boot camp in Mexico for troubled teens. Her stepfather, Rick, has convinced Cassie's mom that Cassie needs help and that Peaceful Cove is a wonderful place. But Cassie knows the real reason why Rick wants to get rid of her: Rick, a child psychiatrist, has been prescribing Socom, an experimental drug, to his teen patients. She knows Rick will make a lot of money if Socom is approved by the FDA. And she's unearthed the fact that three of Rick's patients have died after taking it. Now Cassie has discovered the truth about Peaceful Cove, too: it's really a brutal prison, where the only way out is to make it to graduation. But by then, more kids could die. Can Cassie escape and tell the world what she knows? And even if she does, will anyone believe her?

This was a very fast read, although it looked pretty thick. At times it could be rather gross (when they described the meals they ate) and there wasn't a lot of character development. The plot is pretty simple, so most of the action is at the end. While there is romance, it's a very, very little factor that is hardly shown. Definitely not recommended for readers looking for a romantic or heart warming story. However, it was entertaining enough for me to read the entire thing. If you're looking for a life changing, compelling book, this isn't it. If you just have money to burn and need something to pass the time, then it's good enough.
