Ace of Spades
Ace of Spades

Thrilling exposé of elite school's darkest secrets.

If you're drawn to the high stakes of elite academia with a side of cutthroat mystery, "Ace of Spades" might just be your next page-turner. Imagine the glossy drama of Gossip Girl but with a tense, racially charged twist that nods to "Get Out." As secrets unravel and the danger mounts, Àbíké-Íyímídé's novel will keep you guessing with its gripping narrative and critical take on societal issues. The compelling struggles of Devon and Chiamaka will resonate with anyone who appreciates a thriller that's as socially aware as it is suspenseful.

Description

Gossip Girl meets Get Out in Ace of Spades, a YA contemporary thriller by debut author Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé about two students, Devon Richards and Chiamaka Adebayo, and their struggles against an anonymous bully. "All you need to know is... I'm here to divide and conquer. Like all great tyrants do." — Aces. When two Niveus Private Academy students, Devon Richards and Chiamaka Adebayo, are selected to be part of the elite school's senior class prefects, it looks like their year is off to an amazing start. After all, not only does it look great on college applications, but it officially puts each of them in the running for valedictorian, too. Shortly after the announcement is made, though, someone who goes by Aces begins using anonymous text messages to reveal secrets about the two of them that turn their lives upside down and threaten every aspect of their carefully planned futures. As Aces shows no sign of stopping, what seemed like a sick prank quickly turns into a dangerous game, with all the cards stacked against them. Can Devon and Chiamaka stop Aces before things become incredibly deadly? With heart-pounding suspense and relevant social commentary comes a high-octane thriller from debut author Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé.
