At the start of summer, a lonely and thoughtful teenager, Evie Boyd, sees a group of girls in the park, and is immediately caught by their freedom, their careless dress, their dangerous aura of abandon. Soon, Evie is in thrall to Suzanne, a mesmerizing older girl, and is drawn into the circle of a soon-to-be infamous cult and the man who is its charismatic leader. Hidden in the hills, their sprawling ranch is eerie and run down, but to Evie, it is exotic, thrilling, charged--a place where she feels desperate to be accepted. As she spends more time away from her mother and the rhythms of her daily life, and as her obsession with Suzanne intensifies, Evie does not realize she is coming closer and closer to unthinkable violence.u003cbru003e u003cbru003e u003cbu003eFinalist for the u003ciu003eLos Angeles Timesu003c/iu003e Book Prize * Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle John Leonard Award * Shortlisted for The Center for Fiction First Novel Prize * u003ciu003eThe New York Times Book Review u003c/iu003eEditors' Choice * Emma Cline--One of u003ciu003eGrantau003c/iu003e's Best of Young American Novelistsu003c/bu003eu003cbru003e u003cbru003e u003cbu003ePraise for u003ciu003eThe Girlsu003c/iu003eu003c/bu003eu003cbru003e u003cbru003e "Spellbinding . . . a seductive and arresting coming-of-age story."u003cbu003e--u003ciu003eThe New York Times Book Reviewu003c/iu003eu003c/bu003eu003cbru003e u003cbru003e "Extraordinary . . .
