    About this ebook

    After surviving a dreadful sixth-grade year of bullies, homework, teachers, and the death of a parent, Jacob, a middle school teenager, looks forward to his summer break. But before he can even unload his backpack, one of his least favorite family members moves in. Even worse, a betrayal on social media turns his life upside down. He's facing serious consequences from the school and from his dad for a mean-spirited prank that wasn't his fault. Soon, he's working to solve the mystery of who shared something that wasn't meant to go viral—and who his real friends are. Luckily, support from the unlikeliest ally helps when he finally learns the truth. Now that he knows how the past can haunt you in this social media world, will Jacob be able to make the hard choices and right the wrongs?
