EchoStar Is Always Listening

A super-readable and accessible speculative, techno-thriller. Ruby and her best friend Deva have won free places at the Ash Tree Foundation Performing Arts Camp over the summer. There's just one problem: they won't be able to attend unless their grades seriously improve.

When Deva suddenly starts getting high marks in all their subjects, a confused and hurt Ruby feels left behind. Then she finds out Deva's success is due to EchoStar, a new app that's helping her get ahead. Ruby is desperate to start using it too, but there is much more to EchoStar than she has imagined. Because EchoStar is always watching and listening.
