In the beginning of this book, Laurie and her friend Amie were writing in the publications office.

In their first history lesson they watched a film about the Nazis in the Second World War. Ben Ross, the history teacher, showed them how horrible the regime of the Nazis was and told them that this could happen again. But they didn’t agree with him. So he started an experiment. He called it “The Wave”.

The students learned how to use “Straight through discipline, community and action. They were a strong community and there was also place for the nerds find

Fascinated, Laurie told her mother about The Wave, but she told her, “This thing is very creepy.” Laurie thought about it and planned to destroy the community. Her boyfriend was very into this group and wanted to stop her.
