Product Description

Product Description
You're the least popular girl in school, and the glossy friends who were briefly interested are bored. And you'll do anything to keep them. Nicky finds picking on the new girl is easy: everyone thinks she's weird anyway. But when does 'weird' become 'witchy'? When Bella's skin breaks out like a plague? When Mags and Janet land up in hospital? Normal teen stuff, or evidence of witchcraft? As Nicky's plan winds up to its shocking conclusion, she finds not only has she lost her friends, she's unleashed something truly evil.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very satisfying read, 6 May 2006
By Chantal Lyons (Kent, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I don't usually read this kind of book, but I'm glad I did this time. The writing is racy and uses witty contemporary comparions. The story builds up tension really well. Once I started reading it I couldn't tear my eyes away. I also like how the chapters often switch between characters; seeing the story unfold in different perspectives was interesting and added more depth.

This is a powerful novel that joins many in the quest to seek sympathy from readers for those perscuted in the time of the witchhunts, except that this one has a modern setting. In the final chapters I was practically gasping as I read on, desperate to find out what happened. A gripping novel.
