"Trapped" by Michael Northrup


When seven students are trapped at their high school during the worst storm in years, the tension begins. It begins there and does not stop. Northrup has taken a simple premise and made it complicated. Scotty and his two best friends are stuck with 4 other students-two boys and two girls in a life or death situation. There is no power, no water and the roof has started to collapse. The pressure mounts and a decision has to be made. This decision will have an impact on the rest of the survivors at the school.
A well-written, fast-paced book that will appeal to both readers and non-readers alike. "What if?" seems to be the prevailing question and in some ways it's answered and in other ways there continues to be a ton of questions.
This book will be published in Febrary 2011 by Scholastic.
Pick it up- especially if you are a fan of his first book, "Gentlemen."
