Beverly Hills, 90210? Nope. This is Upper East Side, New York, 10028, and these teens might have even more money than those famous West Coasters. Sixteen-year-old Cristina moves with a sophisticated crowd of friends--many of whom live on their own due to jet-setting parents. When one of their many parties turns ugly and another teen is brutally murdered in its aftermath, Cristina begins to reevaluate friendships and her own beliefs. It is extremely difficult to write about privileged teens without turning the novel into a screenplay for (yet another) prime-time soap. Author Jane Giberga pulls this off, though, giving teens an exciting, but emotionally honest look at how it feels to be on the A-list.
