Brynn Hilder is eager to get away from her run down neighborhood and her Mom’s loser boyfriend. When she is recruited to the elite academy Vale Hall, she jumps at the chance for a new start. She didn’t get into the school because of academics; it was because of her ability to swindle and bamboozle, because this is a school for aspiring con artists. Brynn is asked to help the school with its mission to rid the city of corrupt officials, and soon realizes she is in way over her head. The fast-paced fun in The Deceivers is intriguing and will keep the reader interested as the twists and turns build mystery.  (Florida Teen Read, 2020)
