Ben word geteister deur nie net een nie, maar twee boelies by die skool. Die rooikop-tweeling maak hom baie bang en ongelukkig en hy wil nie eers meer skool toe gaan nie. Mamma herinner Ben dat hy nooit hoef bang te wees as Jesus by hom is nie en dat daar ander maniere is om boelies te hanteer.

Zuléka Smit se pragtige storie bespreek die sensitiewe tema van boelies, veral by skole, en is gebaseer op haar baie jare van ondervinding in die onderwys en ook haar ervaring met haar eie kinders.

Double standards are about to get singled out.

As a lead reporter for The Warrior Weekly, Eden has covered her fair share of stories at St. Joseph's High School. And when intimate pictures of seven female students are anonymously emailed to the entire school, Eden is determined to get to the bottom of it.

In tracking down leads, Eden is shocked to discover not everyone agrees the students are victims. Some people feel the girls "brought it on themselves." Even worse, the school's administration seems more concerned about protecting its reputation than its students.

With the anonymous sender threatening more emails, Eden finds unlikely allies: the seven young women themselves. Banding together to find the perpetrator, the tables are about to be turned. The Slut Squad is fighting back!

Natalie Walton's empowering and sparky debut is a feminist mystery story - perfect for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder and Netflix's Sex Education.
