Fifteen-year-old Zoe is new in town. The first person she meets is Beck, the leader of The Beckoners—with this ruthless gang of girls 'it doesn't matter if you beckon or not, they come calling when they want.' Out of fear and curiosity, Zoe is initiated but then can't escape their intimidation. She gets help from unlikely sources, but is there time to help the tormented April aka Dog?

The Beckoners is a riveting, award-winning story about friendship and the importance of belonging. No teenager will be able to put it down.

Praise for The Beckoners:

'A must-read for anyone who has ever been bullied. All power to Carrie Mac who has dealt with such tough stuff in such an honest and uncompromising way.'

Maureen McCarthy

‘Confronting, challenging, but utterly compelling, Mac tackles the subject of bullying from the centre of its dark heart with characters who are fully realized. It’s Heathers meets The Chocolate War.’

Sunday Age

'Mac capture teenage torment brilliantly. No wonder she has won multiple youth-literature awards for this book.’
