Publisher's Synopsis
Ruby Fink, one of five scholarship students accepted to Desert Academy, a private high school, quickly realizes there is more to the school than meets the eye. On her first day, the water in the Olympic-sized swimming pool is dyed red, among other suspicious activities. The school keeps spreading rumors about certain pranks traditionally happening at the beginning of the year, but is it just good fun? Or is it something bigger? With an invitation to join the secret Dark Ferret Society, Ruby never realized fitting into high school would be this thrilling. The Dark Ferret Society is about community found in unlikely friendships. It is a coming of age story set in high school: a place everyone is convinced they don't belong.
