Maddy did it. An outcast at her small-town Georgia high school, Madison Washington has always been a teasing target for bullies. And she's dealt with it because she has more pressing problems to manage. Until the morning a surprise rainstorm reveals her most closely kept secret: Maddy is biracial. She has been passing for white her entire life at the behest of her fanatical white father, Thomas Washington. After a viral bullying video pulls back the curtain on Springville High's racist roots, student leaders come up with a plan to change their image: host the school's first integrated prom as a show of unity. The popular white class president convinces her Black superstar quarterback boyfriend to ask Maddy to be his date, leaving Maddy wondering if it's possible to have a normal life. But some of her classmates aren't done with her just yet. And what they don't know is that Maddy still has another secret . . . one that will cost them all their lives."--Jacket flap. 541 $d 20240605. 650 $a Racially mixed teenagers $v Young adult fiction. 650 1 $a Bullying $v Young Adult Fiction. 650 1 $a Proms $v Young Adult fiction. 650 $a Racism in education $v Young adult fiction. 650 $a Racism against Black people $v Young adult fiction. 650 $a Passing (Identity) $v Young adult fiction. 650 $a Secrecy $v Young adult fiction. 655 7 $a Horror fiction. 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l VTPD454 $d 20240709011211.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9F0495D03DB811EF8C11F62D48ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
