From the award-winning author of The Turnout and Give Me Your Hand: the searing novel of friendship and betrayal that inspired the USA Network series, praised by Gillian Flynn as "Lord of the Flies set in a high-school cheerleading squad...Tense, dark, and beautifully written." Addy Hanlon has always been Beth Cassidy's best friend and trusted lieutenant. Beth calls the shots and Addy carries them out, a long-established order of things that has brought them to the pinnacle of their high-school careers. Now they're seniors who rule the intensely competitive cheer squad, feared and followed by the other girls -- until the young new coach arrives. Cool and commanding, an emissary from the adult world just beyond their reach, Coach Colette French draws Addy and the other cheerleaders into her life. Only Beth, unsettled by the new regime, remains outside Coach's golden circle, waging a subtle but vicious campaign to regain her position as "top girl" -- both with the team and with Addy herself. Then a suicide focuses a police investigation on Coach and her squad. After the first wave of shock and grief, Addy tries to uncover the truth behind the death -- and learns that the boundary between loyalty and love can be dangerous terrain. The raw passions of girlhood are brought to life in this taut, unflinching exploration of friendship, ambition, and power. Award-winning novelist Megan Abbott, writing with what Tom Perrotta has hailed as "total authority and an almost desperate intensity," provides a harrowing glimpse into the dark heart of the all-American girl.

This book is the best revelation of our century: A demon can be killed! If it s so, why does nobody discuss it? Because all religions are under the devil s subliminal control and have an implicit pact with him, like: I don t reveal your weaknesses or talk about you, and you don t wreck me. This treaty was so actual that Jesus of Nazareth himself had to come to this planet to reveal it. The meeting had been tense. The head of that legion was furious. He had come back from the meeting with his head turned into a frog s face and much shorter. They all knew that he had been demoted. And when that happened, someone would be sacrificed mercilessly. He inquired the responsibilities of each sector and each legion, raged, shouted, foamed. As the new face changed his muzzle anatomy, his voice had also changed. It was thinner. It sounds so funny, fuzzy, wird... mortal. None of those demons under his command didn t like him at all. In fact, no one liked anyone there. In that same section, there were other platoons. Some of them were too big; others were tiny. There was the insecticide platoon, which was microscopic. They specialized in developing diseases and pests, and each platoon had its instructor. It was common to have three or four refresher courses per year. At the end of each internship, they went to earth to practice everything they learned in the classroom. This platoon was the riot and death squad, they weren t the most specialized there, but they fulfilled their role well. In general, their body measured sixty or seventy centimeters. They had thick fur, and looked like a porcupine. The legs were tiny, and the arms were twice as long as the whole body. They were brown, as they only caused riots; they wore no horns. None of them looked human, they hated that shape. Usually, a long, pointed snout or tooth was distinctive to demons specializing in terror and death. They wore a face that resembled a theater mask. They spent months training a new technique, a new psychological weapon, a new tactic. When they were efficient, the main leaders were promoted, but when they failed they were punished by their superiors.
