Summary
"Addy Hanlon has always been Beth Cassidy's best friend and trusted lieutenant. Now they're high school seniors who rule the intensely competitive cheerleading squad, feared and followed by their peers-until the young new coach arrives. Cool and commanding, Coach Colette French draws Addy and the other cheerleaders into her life. Only Beth remains outside Coach's golden circle, waging a subtle but vicious campaign to regain her position as "Top Girl"-both within the team and with Addy. When a tragedy leads a police investigation to focus on Coach and her squad, 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 rise to the surface in this taut, unflinching exploration of friendship, ambition, and power. Megan Abbott provides a harrowing glimpse into the dark heart of the all-American girl" -- Page 4 of cover
