THE BOOK
Synopsis.
When Ben Candido and his friends, Ricky and John, decide to post a
YouTube video of themselves surfing on top of a car, they finally feel
like the somebodies they are meant to be instead of the social
nobodies that they are. Overnight, the video becomes the talk of the
school, and the boys are sure that their self-appointed senior year of
dares will live in infamy. Every dare brings an increased risk of bodily
harm, but Ben cannot deny the thrill and sense of swagger that come
with it. The stakes become even more complex when a mysterious donor
bankrolls their dares in exchange for a cut in the online revenue the
videos generate. But at what point do the risk and the reward come at
too high of a price? What does it take to stay true to one’s self in the
face of relentless pressure.
