Luke Garner feels afraid.
For the first time in his life, he is coming out of hiding, but he is aware that any moment one of his new classmates at Hendricks School for Boys may find out his secret—that he is a third child going by the recently departed Lee Grant. Furthermore, having a third kid guarantees your execution at the hands of the feared Population Police in a society where it is against the law for a family to have more than two children.
It's a confusing first experience for him to be away from the security of his home. The school has no windows at all, Luke is unable to distinguish between his classmates—even while they brutally haze him—and the professors don't appear to be aware of any of this.
Luke, who is desperate to fit in, puts up with the misunderstanding and jokes until he finds an open door leading outdoors and the opportunity to figure out what's actually going on. But Luke will have to overcome his worries and find a bravery that a lifetime of hiding from the world couldn't stop him if he is to accept this risk and learn the mysteries of Hendricks.
Best-selling author Margaret Peterson Haddix thrills her readers once again with this chilling tale of an all-too-possible future.
In addition to being a thrilling thriller on its own, Among the Impostors is a deserving companion to Among the Hidden.
