Among the Barons

In a future where the Population Police enforce the law limiting a family to only two children, Luke Garner, an illegal third child, has lived all his twelve years in isolation and fear on his family's farm. Luke's life changes when he's given a fake I.D. and introduced to a world of privileges and danger. Luke Garner, an illegal third child, spent his first twelve years in hiding. For the past four months Luke has lived among others, using the identity of Lee Grant, at the Hendricks School for Boys. But just as things are finally starting to go right, Lee's little brother Smits arrives at the school and Luke finds himself caught in a tangle of lies that gets more complex with every passing day. Can Luke trust Smits to keep his secret? And can he trust Smits's menacing bodyguard, Oscar?
