The best of the best - Marilyn Kaye

A new kid has started in the ninth grade at Amy's school. He's super-intelligent and he's only eight years old. The whole school is talking about him, and Amy's boyfriend, Eric has been assigned as the prodigy's 'big brother' in school. Amy is fascinated - she, Eric and her best friend, Tasha, should get to know this kid pretty well - maybe they could all be friends. But Adrian is rude and grouchy and very patronising. Only the best will do for him, even Amy doesn't meet his standards. But as Amy digs deeper into Adrian's background, she comes up with some disturbing information. If she doesn't act on what she knows, then a terrifying super-race plan will become reality . . .
