Second to None

Twelve-year-old DJ has a reputation at his middle school for being able to solve just about any problem, so when somebody starts systematically sabotaging the kids who are the usual ＂first-raters,＂ it’s up to DJ and his crew to get to the bottom of what’s happening.

Destiny Howell was born in Florida and decided to become a lawyer to learn all the rules before she quit to write novels about clever kids who break them. She currently lives in Tampa, Florida where she is pursuing an MFA in creative writing and trying to get together a weekly Dungeons & Dragons group (which is proving much trickier).
