"A Meth Dealer.?A? Prostitute.?A Serial Killer. Anywhere else, they?d be vermin. At the Mandel Academy, they?re called prodigies. The most exclusive school in New York City has been training young criminals for over a century. Only the most ruthless students are allowed to graduate. The rest disappear. Flick, a teenage pickpocket, has risen to the top of his class. But then Mandel recruits a fierce new competitor who also happens to be Flick?s old flame. They?ve been told only one of them will make it out of the Mandel Academy. Will they find a way to save each other?or will the school destroy them both?"@en
