This Ain't No Video Game, Kid!

by Kevin Stevens

A tense and gritty story of home values threatened by street gang violenceThe summer before Jack Klements begins high school in Seattle, his life is disrupted by a visit from his Irish cousin Finn, a "problem child" sent from Dublin after being expelled from school. Obsessed with the violent computer game Gang Feud 3, Finn has trouble distinguishing between games and reality, and soon becomes dangerously involved with a Latino gang in the inner city. Kevin Stevens’s pacy debut as a young adult writer is an adventure story with divided loyalties at its heart.
