High school freshman Jane believes that she would do anything to be popular until she is selected to be in the school's most exclusive clique and learns that popularity has a price.
The ****** are the three most popular girls at the aggressively competitive Crestview Academy, while Janie and Alicia are pretty much overlooked by absolutely everyone. When Janie is chosen by the ****** to join them, she's shocked, overjoyed, and confused. Why her? To become a part of their powerful clique, all she has to do is steal something from another classmate each week and leave it on the creepy religion teacher's desk. It's that simple. And as she is transformed into someone of status, those she's filched from become increasingly unpopular--including Alicia. Janie manages to escape her guilt by enjoying the students fawning at her feet, but when the ****** plan something potentially dangerous, she's faced with an agonizing choice. Will she risk plummeting back down to the dregs of the student body? The combination of teen popularity and witchcraft creates an irresistibly wicked, sardonic plot.
