SYNOPSIS

Five teens are students at Rockland Academy, and they're the only ones summoned to a meeting in an old building--when the roof caves in on them. They survive, but barely. It was a terrible accident. Or was it? Their families can't have banded together to kill them all. That's crazy! And yet:

 

Saralinda: "I'm a huge burden to my mother."

Caleb: "I'm a monster."
Kenyon: "My grandfather hates me."
Antoine: "My mother has tried to kill me twice."
Evangeline: "I'll inherit 40 million dollars on my birthday, unless I die first."

When another "accident" happens, suddenly they're four kids racing to escape the deadly trap that's fast squeezing shut around them.

And Then There Were Four

Five very different students at a private high school are brought together under mysterious circumstances: the popular and kind Antoine Duboi; the physically awkward Saralinda de la Flor, who has a big crush on him; Antoine's best friend, the wealthy, arrogant Evangeline Song; Martha McKenyon, the openly, defiantly gay transfer student; and Caleb Colchester Jr., the brooding, reclusive son of a famous doctor.

Before these five can figure out why they've been summoned, the roof of their meeting place collapses, and they just barely escape the catastrophe. Soon a second freak accident does claim the life of one of them, and little by little they piece together a shocking but plausible theory: that their parents are working together to kill them all.

Is it true, and if so, why? But most important, can the teenagers figure out a way to save themselves? As the urgency builds, this unlikely group will gradually bond--some in love, all in friendship--while struggling to stay safe against the odds.

You'll be desperate to discuss this thrilling page-turner with a friend as soon as you've reached its surprising, satisfying conclusion.

And Then There Were Four is about five teenagers (Caleb, Evangeline, Saralinda, Antoine, and Kenyon) who learn that their parents are conspiring to kill them.

But few stories come from a single idea, or a single inspirational source.

MONSTER AND CHATTERBOX

Meet two of my five teenagers-on-the-run:

CALEB: “One thing is true. You are not a little boy anymore. You are seventeen, and you don’t believe in Mommy keeping you safe or in friends having your back or in anybody, including you, knowing the difference between good and evil.”

Caleb has reason to believe he’s got a dangerous dissociative personality disorder—kind of like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

 

SARALINDA: “I used to love [The Thirteen Clocks] too until I realized that Princess Saralinda is one of those princesses who is beautiful but has very little character and also she is under a curse that stops her from speaking her mind (which troubles me though I understand the curse is necessary for the plot). I like my name in any case and there are still things I like about the book but I can’t love it anymore is my point.

“However I’m reminded of Princess Saralinda every time I don’t tell my mother wha
