IN TOO DEEP

• 2013 Junior Library Guild Selection

“Voorhees has created a heroine who is not to be underestimated; sure, Annie wants the boy, but she's also smart, self-possessed, and incredibly witty. Most importantly, Annie and her friends are completely believable; Voorhees nails the teenage voice. Fans of Maureen Johnson and Sarah Mlynowski will immediately be attracted to self-effacing, relatable Annie. A frothy and fun adventure.” —School Library Journal

“A fun summer romp. The danger, history, travel, romance, and vividly described scuba-diving scenes will draw readers deeply in.” —Booklist

SUMMARY

Annie Fleet, master scuba diver and history buff, knows she can’t fight her nerd status as a freshman at her Los Angeles private school. And she doesn’t care—except for the fact that her crush, Josh, thinks she’s more adorable than desirable. Annie is determined to set him straight on their school trip to Mexico. But her teacher has other plans: he needs Annie to help him find Cortez’s lost-long treasure.

Suddenly, Annie finds herself scuba diving in pitch-black waters, jetting to Hawaii with Josh, and hunting for the priceless Golden Jaguar. But Annie and Josh aren’t the only ones lured by the possibility of finding the greatest treasure ever lost at sea. Someone else wants the gold—and needs Annie dead. In deeper danger than she ever imagined, can Annie get the boy and find the Jaguar, or is she in over her head?
