(2) YA Clued in by the mysterious death of a classmate, Jason begins to suspect that all is not what it seems in his boring small-town existence and ever-pleasant family life. It turns out that his family and many of the other folks in town are aliens, the advance guard of a conquering race. The plot's an eye-roller--think William Sleator without the math--but Shusterman is a good writer who knows how to keep things moving.
