Publisher's Synopsis
Justin's life sucks. A bright, fifteen-year-old misfit, he's constantly looking over his shoulder for the next beating and humiliation, courtesy of the school bully and his gang, worrying about his mom at home, and now dealing with his dad being back in their lives. And just when things start to get better, they get a whole lot worse. Lashing out in anger, revenge on his mind, Justin sets his world on fire-literally. Payback can be awesome, even if the collateral damage is troubling, but when Justin's actions catch the attention of some otherworldly bad guys, he's forced to come to terms with who he really wants to be.Being dead may have its advantages, but making life easier isn't one of them.Balancing rapid-fire action with moments of quiet introspection and raw, human emotion, Gate Crasher is a riveting fantasy adventure coming of age story that's both timely in its examination of the impacts of modern-day teen bullying and compelling in its darkly funny, insightful take on morals, ethics, and how we think about Heaven and Hell.
