Maggie Quinn, girl reporter. Honors student, newspaper staffer, yearbook photographer.
A sensible nerd would keep her head down and ride out the six weeks until Graduation. But fate has different plans for Maggie.
Sure, high school can be hellish, but the scent of actual fire and brimstone makes Maggie suspect that something’s a bit off. When real Twilight Zone stuff starts happening to the school’s ruling clique, it’s up to her to get in touch with her inner Nancy Drew and ferret out who unleashed an ancient evil before all hell breaks loose.
Maggie has always suspected that prom is the work of the devil, but it looks like she’ll be shopping for a dress. Sometimes a girl’s got to do what a girl’s got to do to save her town from the forces of darkness.
