In The Face of Danger
Two girls who can’t stand each other. One fire that only wants the two of them.
Eliana Barker has her face ready by seven every morning. Pleasant, a little bored, nothing anyone can use. Lexie Calloway sings in a punk band behind the gym and doesn’t bother with a face at all. They share one civics class and nothing else.
Then Eliana’s uncle dies, the guitarist her family never took seriously. Lexie’s aunt dies too, and she happens to be the most famous pop star in the country, which Lexie has never told anyone. Each girl ends up holding a notebook that makes no sense to anybody else.
During a fire drill at Harmon Heights High, a real fire comes down the hall. It goes around everyone else in the building. It’s looking for the two of them.
