Chantal Simmons has two months and two days to find both a dress ... and a date ... for prom. Easy-peasey when you're the girl at the top of the popularity pyramid. But what if your pom poms have slipped a little? The only route left to reclaim her place on the cheerleading squad and a spot on the prom court is a detour through a rough and tumble roller derby team. Can Chantal climb back to the top of the heap ... in smelly knee pads and skates? And what's this stuff about eating a baby? P.S. I've tried and tried to find the owner of my cover photo and so far I've failed. PM me if you know who deserves credit for this image.

Josie Brown has no idea the Organic Food Store next door is haunted. Until he sees the rotting, shrieking ghost baby in the paper towel aisle. Then the nightmares start. The little girl across the street disappears from her bed. And Josie wakes up in her room the night she goes missing. Just about everyone in Sydney, Australia - including his workaholic parents and ambivalent teachers - thinks Josie is stealing the kids of Tamarama Street. It isn't long before the police, reporters, and a mob of angry kids are accusing the weird, quiet 14-year-old of being a monster. And Josie is starting to think they might be right. Only two people might believe him - Emerald, the new girl and daughter of the great marine biologist, who has been tracking the children's disappearances, and Manhattan, surf star, intimidating wild girl, and sister of one of the missing kids. Together, the three discover that what is taking the children is not human at all, but something much more ancient, powerful, unstoppable and deadly. Josie will have to face the monster and ultimately, his own demons, if he wants to clear his name and save the kids.
