About this book
When her mother suddenly moves them to a new town, Zoe is unhappy about leaving behind what passes for a normal life. At her new school, she meets Beck, a terrifying figure who rules through intimidation and violence. Rather than become a victim, Zoe must decide whether to fight back against the school's culture of cruelty, even when it means risking everything. The Beckoners is a chilling look at the dark realities of school bullying and the terrible price of standing up for what's right.
