Sixteen-year-old Grape Merriweather has just moved to Sortilege Falls
and already she knows something isn't right. A small pack of teenage
models, too beautiful for words, hold the town in their sway. The models
have no plans on making Grape's life easy. But no matter how cruel they
are to Grape and the other "Normals", no one can stay angry with them
for long. Grape's life changes for the better, or so she thinks, when
Mandy, the only "nice" model, befriends her. But that's when the trouble
truly begins. Mandy's friendship places Grape smack in the middle of a
medical mystery that has the entire town on edge. One by one, the models
fall ill from an incurable disease. Grape quickly realizes that the
models' parents are hiding a secret, even as they watch their children
die. To save her only friend, Grape will have to find the truth-and that
means putting her life in danger.
