Description
A college freshman tries to escape the clutches of an occult gang The first months of college take a toll on Molly Keene. In high school she knew everyone, but at Salem University she's just another face in the crowd. No one notices her besides Norman, a peculiar intellectual who invites her to join his new club: the Others. The first meeting is just small talk, but at the second, things get weird. A ceremony takes place in the woods, around a campfire. Norman declares that the Others have show more secret powers which give them the right to impose their will on the school. It should be funny, but Molly isn't laughing. As she makes more friends, Molly tries to get away from Norman and his creepy club. But she has already been initiated, and the Others aren't going to let her go without a fight. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Diane Hoh including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the author's personal collection. show lessTags
