Description

Told from the perspective of three seemingly unconnected teenagers, Called Upon steers the adolescent reader through a series of twists and turns that merge together with jaw-dropping results.

Kaitlin, the social pariah of her high school, is so relieved to have made friends at Camp Overlook that she is willing to look past the camp's anomalies: creepy counselors, 24-hour video surveillance, and campers disappearing quietly into the night. Dr. Forsythe, the mastermind behind the Overlook experiment, explains that Kaitlin has a genetic gift-one which laid dormant until her stay at summer camp. Having never considered herself normal, let alone special, Kaitlin is dazzled to have an ability with world-changing implications.

After a terrifying warning from Dr. Forsythe's embittered son and then discovering a dead body in the doctor's walk-in freezer, Kaitlin must decide whether to embrace her new gift and follow Dr. Forsythe or use her gift to defeat the very system from which it was created. By the end, readers come away from Called Upon feeling surprised and exhilarated, they will also, like Kaitlin, leave with a new understanding of their own intrinsic worth and limitless potential.

    Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

    The shipping was just superior

    The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

    Found a hard to get book…

    Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
