Eight hours. Sixteen competitors. A flight none of them might survive.

When high school senior Emily Walters boards a private jet to fly to Europe, she knows her chances of beating the other fifteen students to win an exclusive college scholarship are slim. With her family’s disastrous financial status, this chance is one she can’t afford to waste, even when the competition starts unexpectedly right after takeoff.

But someone is tampering with the contest–someone who knows dangerous secrets about the competitors. Someone willing to kill to win.
