      About This Book

      Best friends . . . to the end!

      Who is Honey Perkins? She's been telling everyone in Shadyside that she's Becka Norwood's best friend. But Becka's sure she's never met Honey before.

      Honey systematically moves in on Becka's life, copying her in every way. But when Becka presumes to have more than one "best friend," the horrible accidents begin.

      Does Honey just want a friend? Becka wonders. Or does she want more -- much more!
