Candor
In the model community of Candor, Florida, every teen wants to be like Oscar Banks. The son of the town’s founder, Oscar earns straight As and is student-body president.
But Oscar has a secret. He knows that parents bring their teens to Candor to make them respectful, perfect, and compliant through subliminal messages that carefully correct and control their behavior. And Oscar’s built a business sabotaging his father’s scheme with messages of his own.
After all, who would ever suspect the perfect Oscar Banks? Then he meets Nia, the girl he can’t stand to see changed. Saving Nia means losing her forever. Keeping her in Candor, Oscar risks exposure… and more.

Reviews
The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
“The constant threat of Oscar’s discovery, along with a rather hot romance and some key chase scenes, will keep readers turning the pages….[A]n ideal choice for book clubs.” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
Publishers Weekly
“[I]t’s a compelling story that quickly becomes a page-turner. Be prepared for a chilling ending.” —Publishers Weekly
