NOTE TO READERS: This is a trilogy. As is the case with all episodic novel series, this story will be completed within the last episode.
In the first installment of the Extracurricular episodic series: It's your child's senior year. A private high school's reputation is at stake.
Students have only one more shot at the SAT before college applications are due—
And a few desperate parents with much more money than brains are willing to do anything to get their children into Ivy League colleges.
At the same time, Audrey Thorpe's dirty little secret will soon be the downfall of everyone and everything she holds dear: love, family, friends, and her private high school alma mater.
In the Extracurricular episodic trilogy, a dark family secret leads to a college admissions cheating scandal at a private school, setting off a crisis of conscience for the parents, teachers, administrator, and the students involved—and a catharsis for one couple about their marriage.
Can Ashbury Academy survive this scandal?
An even bigger question: Will Audrey's marriage—and her family—fall apart after her long-held secret is finally revealed?
