What if school was sports, and sports were school? A talented teen athlete questions realityâand the role she plays in itâwhen a mysterious injury upends her world.
Athletics are everything for eighth-grader KT Sutton. Sheâs a softball star, and sheâs on track to get a college scholarship and achieve international fame. Then one day during a championship gameâin the middle of an important playâshe suddenly blacks out.
When she wakes up, sheâs in a different world. One where school is class after class of athletic drills, and after-school sports are replaced by popular academic competitions. One where KT is despised for her talent, and where her parents are fixated on her brotherâs future mathletics career rather than KTâs softball hopes.
KT is desperate to get back to reality as she knew it, but bits and pieces of disturbing memories and dreams make her wonder if something truly awful happened there. What if sheâs lost something a lot more important than a softball game?
From New York Times bestselling author of Sent and Sabotaged, an engaging and highly relevant exploration of societyâs debate of smarts versus sports.
