A Read with Jenna Book Club Pick!
You Never Know Who's Listening
Nick Pappas-a teenage boy with nascent superpowers-has his world turned upside down when he's taken into witness protection after his superhero father is murdered on national television. But things are not what they appear to be in the small town he's relocated to. He soon discovers that, not only is it populated with family members of super villains, but it's also a prison and he's considered one of its most dangerous inmates. He can't be sure who to trust, and to make matters worse, he's developing powers of his own-with no way to control them.
