Summary:A toxic coach finds himself outplayed by the high school girls on his team in this deeply suspenseful novel, which unspools over twenty-four hours through six diverse perspectives. Tomorrow, the Wildcat varsity field hockey squad will play the first game of their new season. But at tonight<U+2019>s team sleepover, the girls are all about forging the bonds of trust, loyalty, and friendship necessary to win. Everything hinges on the midnight initiation ceremony -- a beloved tradition and the only facet of being a Wildcat that the girls control. Until now. Coach -- a handsome former college player revered and feared in equal measure -- changes the plan and spins his team on a new adventure. One where they take a rival team<U+2019>s mascot for a joyride, crash a party in their pajamas, break into the high school for the perfect picture. But as the girls slip out of their comfort zone, so do some long-held secrets. And just how far they<U+2019>re willing to go for their team takes them all -- especially Coach -- by surprise. A testament to the strength and resilience of modern teenage girls, We Are the Wildcats will have readers cheering.
