Among the Barons

 

By: Margret Peterson Haddix

 

It was a regular day at Hendricks school for Luke who took the identity of Lee Grant a wealthy baron. Little did Luke know that his brother Smits who was also Lee’s brother decided to come visit him at Hendricks. Luke was scared not knowing what to say to Smits considering he had never seen him before. Once Smits got out of the car he walked up to Luke and gave him a hug once the hug was over he whispered in Luke's ear. The question is what did he whisper in his ear and what was Luke’s reaction to his question.

 Luke showed Smits around the school as he was showing him around the school Luke noticed a guy that was scary and buff following them around. Luke looked at Smits and asked if he knew the guy Smits looked behind him Smits said, yes my parents hired him to be my body guard. Once a week or two went by a fire happened and no one knew who started it only that the body guard and Smits were the only people who slept on that floor. The headmaster of the school told Luke and Smits that their parents wanted them home. Once they got home a terrible accident that killed the Grants the question is was it for the president or was it meant to kill the Grants?

This book was amazing in my opinion, if you like intense books. It’s also a good book if you like mystery. In my opinion this book is the best book I have ever read. I hope you enjoyed this book as much as I did.
