About this audiobook
Kyle Saint-Claire is everything Jonny Fehey wishes to be: a star on the soccer field, a straight-A student, and king of Millburn High’s social ladder. Jonny unhappily accepts his position on a lesser rung, until fate steps in and Jonny scores the go-ahead goal in the county soccer championships...and it looks like he will finally make it into the popular crowd. But at the victory party, a classmate is raped and Jonny’s world begins to unravel.
Through years of friendship, Kyle and Jonny have always stood up for one another, but suddenly all of the training, pain, and dedication have become meaningless as their friendship is tested to the breaking point.
Exciting sports action and a misguided sense of justice combine in a suspenseful tale of popularity and entitlement — and an ending that Jonny never saw coming.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Jonny and Kyle have been best friends since grade school, but when they got to high school their paths diverged; Kyle became the star of the soccer team while Jonny could only manage second string. Kyle got accepted into the elite group that meets at "the circle" to party every weekend, while Jonny stays home. It's senior year, and all Jonny wants to do is get one chance to hang out with the popular kids. When he scores the winning goal in an important match, he finally gets invited to the circle, but what occurs there has consequences even he cannot foresee.
