Grades 8-11 A hotly contested election for city council has come to the Southern Californian barrio setting of other titles in the issue-driven Urban Underground series, Dark Secrets and The Stranger (both 2010). A local reformer is challenging a corrupt councilman seeking reelection. Because 16-year-old Ernestos girlfriend, Naomi, is a cousin of the incumbent, the boy fears that if he supports the reformer, he might lose Naomi. Will he find the courage to do the right thing? This novel tackles a timely topic with an accessible degree of complexity and a clutch of sympathetic characters. Tight suspense will hold readers attention to the satisfying conclusion.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2011, American Library Association.)
