|  | Virtual Amy by Marilyn Kaye
Amy fears the organization is monitoring her every move. That's what Andy tells her--before he disappears. He says they've both been implanted with a chip. Is there anywhere Amy can hide? The answer seems to lie in a computer game. A game into which Amy downloads her consciousness A game in which fantastic creatures and terrifying dangers lurk at every turn. A game that Amy suspects is being played in real life...by someone with sinister intentions. Amy must get to the end of the game--ahead of whoever's trying to finish her off. AUTHOR: Marilyn Kaye
