What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

These teens are chosen and trained by a family member who’s training has been passed down for generations. It’s a multiple POV book. There’s a scene when all the players are sitting in a circle in a forest waiting for the game to begin & sizing each other up. They all know languages, computer hacking, how to make themselves untraceable etc. One POV started with an explosion (?) at a graduation ceremony. I think the two American players met each other and then realized at a later date that they’d be playing against each other. Only one player is supposed to “win” everyone else should die.

Is this The Calling by James Frey?

Note to self: correct answer.

Thats it!!!! Thank you!

Glad you found your book, Kate. I deleted the duplicate threads. For future reference: one thread per book request, please.
