Seton Girls

A group of courageous young girls stumbles upon the hidden secret that explains the high school football team's dominance for so long—and now, they must decide whether to stay silent or expose the truth.

“A scathing critique of toxic masculinity wrapped up in a gorgeously written prep-school mystery.”—Becky Albertalli, New York Times bestselling author of Simon Vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda

“A timely examination of consent, power, and who owns the rights to the truth.”—Kirkus Reviews

Seton Academic High is a prep school obsessed with its football team and their soon-to-be thirteen-year conference win streak, a legacy that players always say they’d never have without Seton’s girls. What exactly Seton girls do to make them so valuable, though, no one ever really says. They’re just “the best.” But the team’s quarterback, the younger brother of the Seton star who started the streak, wants more than regular season glory. He wants a state championship before his successor, Seton’s first Black QB, has a chance to overshadow him. Bigger rewards require bigger risks, and soon the actual secrets to the team’s enduring success leak to a small group of girls who suddenly have the power to change their world forever.

This is the story of Seton Girls.
