<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A group of friends start a secret society in this "intense page-turner" (<i>Kirkus Reviews</i>) from the author of <i>The Telling </i>and <i>The Creeping</i> that examines the all-consuming love of lifelong friendship--and what someone is capable of when they're afraid of losing it.</b> <p/>Izzie loves nothing more than her three best friends, Viv, Graham, and Harry, and the bond the four of them share. And she's terrified of their friendship falling apart next year when they go off to college. To bind them together, she decides to create something that will belong only to them, a special thing that they'll always share between the four of them. And so they dream up the Order of IV, a secret society devoted to mischief that rights wrongs and pays back debts. At first, it works like a charm--but when the Order of IV's escapades get recognition beyond their wildest expectations, other people start wanting in. And soon, what started as a game of friendship is spiraling into something dangerous and beyond their control--and before it's over, they'll pay the ultimate sacrifice.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[For] horror fans looking for a creepy thrill."-- "BCCB, on THE CREEPING"<br><br>"A neatly done murder mystery."-- "Kirkus Reviews, on THE TELLING"<br><br>"A small town legend, a missing redhead, a monster in the forest...Sirowy'sThe Creeping is a haunting, modern day folktale, in the darkest sense of the word.
