Description:
A teenage boy discovers a coin that can change his life with every flip in this Andre Norton Award-winning sci-fi fantasy for young adult readers. Sixteen-year-old Ephraim Scott is horrified when he comes home from school and finds his mother unconscious at the kitchen table, clutching a bottle of pills. The reason for her suicide attempt is even more disturbing: She had just identified Ephraim's body at the morgue that day. Among his dead double's belongings, Ephraim finds a strange coin-one that grants wishes when he flips it. With a flick of his thumb, he can turn his alcoholic mother into a model parent or catch the eye of the girl he's had a crush on since second grade. But the coin doesn't always change things for the better. And a bad flip can destroy other people's lives as easily as it improves his own. Now Ephraim must learn to control the power of the coin before his luck runs out.
