A Kirkus Reviews Starred selection and 5-Star IndieReader Approved

When a ruthless criminal mastermind with dark intentions takes a prestigious New England prep school hostage, Cade Dixon faces a choice: As a working class townie worth nothing in their perverse bidding war, he can save himself or try to stop them. It would have been an easy choice - save his own skin - except for one thing.

It would mean leaving behind Kira.

Soon, with the fate of the student body left to them, Kira and Cade must sacrifice their own safety and attempt to outwit a daunting and deadly group of criminals.

Cade was never dying to be a hero.

But he just might.

Lost One Standing is a breezy Young Adult thriller with a unique heist story that will appeal to readers of all ages.

Industry Reviews

"A captivating story of a reluctant hero that will leave readers eagerly anticipating the next installment." Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Hector Hill's LOST ONE STANDING delivers all of the suspense and action of a heist film for the YA crowd and is a tense, high-stakes thriller with an extremely likeable protagonist and enough twists and turns to keep the plot barreling along at a breathless pace...'A cinematic thrill ride...'Die Hard' meets Jason Bourne for the young adult crowd." -IndieReader - 5 Stars - an IndieReader Approved selection

"Loved it!...I enjoyed the pacing and nonstop action of this story. Crisp writing and short sentences lend an almost cinematic feel to the goings-on, and the reader slides to the edge of his seat." Reedsy Discovery

"Cade Dixon is part Holden Caulfield, part Jason Bourne, with a touch of MacGyver...The story's pacing is taut and its tension intense, but it's tempered by the enjoyable pairing of Cade and Kira. Both are supersmart, funny kids" - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"His budding relationship with Kira grows as the two of them fight their way past armed goons left and right. Their relationship is sweet, often funny, and they're a fantastic criminal-busting pair. - IndieReader - 5 Stars - an IndieReader Approved selection
