Books with title Escalator Escapade

Meet Ryan Youngblood. He's a Sophomore in High School. His hobbies include avoiding homework, watching cartoons on the weekends, and obsessing over the hottest girl in school, whom he has no chance of ever getting with. He spends most days cleaning up his step fathers drunken disasters, and wiping his mothers tears. This is basically normal for Ryan. Until one Monday morning, which happens to be April Fools Day, he arrives at school only to realize that things are a bit odd. Nobody can get a signal with their cellphones. What starts off as a seemingly harmless April Fools joke soon turns into a fight for a group of teenagers lives. They're forced to face dark pasts, secrets, and death.
