Back of Book:
Saving the school—one con at a time.
Jackson Greene has reformed. No, really he has. He became famous for the Shakedown at Shimmering Hills, and everyone still talks about the Blitz at the Fitz... But after the disaster of the Mid-Day PDA, he swore off scheming and conning for good.
Then Keith Sinclair—loser of the Blitz—announces he's running for school president, against Jackson's former best friend Gaby de la Cruz. Gaby hasn't talked to Jackson since the PDA, and he knows she won't welcome his involvement. But he also knows Keith has "connections" to the principal, which could win him the election whatever the vote count.
So Jackson assembles a crack team to ensure the election is done right: Hashemi Larijani, tech genius. Victor Cho, bankroll. Megan Feldman, science goddess and cheerleader. Charlie de la Cruz, point man. Together they devise a plan that will bring Keith down once and for all. Yet as Jackson draws closer to Gaby again, he realizes the election isn't the only thing he wants to win.

Back of Book:
He brought down the bullies.
He saved the election.
He outsmarted the principal (Though that didn't take much).
He's Jackson Greene, and ever since the Great Greene Heist, things have been going pretty well for him. Principal Kelsey is (mostly) off his back. His friends have terrific new projects of their own. And he's been hanging out a lot with Gaby de la Cruz, so he thinks maybe, just maybe, they'll soon have their first kiss.
Then Jackson receives a link to a faked video that shows him and "Gang Greene" flooding the entire school. The jerks behind the video says they'll send it to Principal Kelsey—unless Jackson steals a copy of the school's toughest exam.
So Jackson and his crew reunite for their biggest job yet. To get the test and clear their names, they'll have to outrun the school's new security cameras, outwit a nosy member of the Honor Board, and outmaneuver the blackmailers setting a trap for them in turn. And as Gang Greene executes another exciting caper full of twists and turns, they'll prove that it takes a thief to catch a cheat.
