Product Description

A sisterhood of blood, a secret haven from a world of lechers and oppressors, Foxfire is a high-school girl gang, a conspiracy marked by codes, tattoos, and the commitment that only angy teenages can forge—a liberating fury that burns too hot to last. Their ringleader is the charismatic, on-the-edge beauty Legs Sadovsky, mastermind of a campaign that escalates from a single act of revenge to a shared life financed by luring predatory men into traps baited with sex. A shocking, provocative, lyrical tale of female rage and grit in the tradition of Thelma and Louise.

Reviews/Praise

“A deftly crafted, highly imaginative novel. . . . The forces that gave rise to Foxfire and the bonds that kept it together raise many interesting questions about gender, social status, and sexuality.”
      —Library Journal
