Infos

High school senior Hallie Mayhew spends her days traipsing from one lavish Montecito estate to the next . . . spraying ant poison.Between her dads pest control company, her moms pond cleaning service and her side gig at Caddysnack (Santa Barbaras premier small plates and minigolf destination) Hal puts the work in working class. But Hal has qualms about gassing gophers. Shes tired of ditching friends to skim dead fish from fountains. And shes freaking weary of divorced-parent politics. So Hal has a plan: win the prestigious Verhaag Scholarship, go to an east coast school, never come back.But the Verhaag Scholarship has a proud history of nepotism and a last-minute contender just crawled out of the woodwork. Hals parking lot nemesis usurps Yearbook Committee, depriving Hal of her only extracurricular credit. Her Montecito clients are in a defensive frenzy over a rash of estate burglaries and, if her jobs keep making her tardy, she may not even graduate. To salvage her scholarship, Hal needs the help of Spencer Salazar, the dim, infuriating (and kinda hot) rich kid next door. To save her college prospects, she must restore the natural order of Yearbook Committee. To preserve her graduation eligibility, she needs a happy first period history teacher. And, ideally, shell avoid death by doberman. Now, in her non-existent spare time, Hal is adding private eye, matchmaker, and rat commando to her list of side gigs and wonderingmaybe too lateif she misjudged the boy next door.
