She'll even break her dad's rules to get her cousin back on her side of the chessboard . . . It's time to check-mate The Steps before they can finish the Vossens off.<br><br>Secrets, lies, and lethal threats abound in this clever, quirky thriller by the award-winning, bestselling author of <i>Flipped</i> and the Sammy Keyes mysteries.
