About to graduate from high school, Perry has little to worry about
since he was recently accepted to a prestigious university. Its prom
night--and Perry just wants to finally play a much anticipated gig with
his band in the Big Apple. But when his mother makes him take Gobija
Zaksauskas--their quiet, geeky Lithuanian exchange student--to the prom,
he never expects that his ordinary high school guy life will soon turn
on its head. Perry finds that Gobi is on a mission, and Perry has no
other choice but to go along for a reckless ride through Manhattan's
concrete grid with a trained assassin in Dad's red Jag. Infused with
capers, car chases, heists, hits, henchmen, and even a bear fight, this
story mixes romance, comedy, and tragedy in a true teen coming-of-age
adventure--and it's not over until it's "au revoir."
A punto de terminar la preparatoria, Perry tiene poco de qué
preocuparse por su futuro: fue aceptado por las mejores universidades y
le espera un buen trabajo en la firma legal de su padre. Sólo resta
disfrutar lo que resta del año escolar, y eso incluye la visita de
intercambio de una chica europea. Pero cuando la estudiante extranjera
llega a casa de Perry, es todo menos una modelo de ojos claros. Bajita,
rechoncha y desaliñada Gobija Zaksauskas es más una carga que una
aventura... hasta el día de graduación, en el que, como una Cenicienta
malévola, Gobija se transforma en una joven belleza... asesina.
