 * Good sections to read aloud:**

Laurie Stratton, the main character, is extremely excited for the new school year to begin, because this year, she IS someone....someone because she is the girlfriend of Gordon Ahearn, one of the most popular boys. Because they live on an island without a school, they must ride the ferry to the mainland, and it’s going to be great to have those 40 minutes with Gordon each morning and afternoon.
 * Summary:**

Well, Laurie is in for a surprise. When she shows up the first morning at the ferry, all of her “friends,” including Gordon, kind of blow her off when she says she is sorry she missed the big back to school party the night before because she was sick. They all scoff at the fact that she was sick and want to know who she was with on the beach. Laurie, obviously confused, doesn’t know how to respond because she was home in bed sick! It’s only until after several other people mention that they saw her places that she wasn’t at that she realizes there must be someone else, a stranger, with her face! And....the mystery is on.....who is it? What do they want? Why are they bothering her friends and family?
