    About this audiobook

    Izzie loves nothing more than her three best friends, Viv, Graham, and Harry, and the bond the four of them share. And she's terrified of their friendship falling apart next year when they go off to college. To bind them together, she decides to create something that will belong only to them, a special thing that they'll always share between the four of them. And so they dream up the Order of IV, a secret society devoted to mischief that rights wrongs and pays back debts. At first, it works like a charm-but when the Order of IV's escapades get recognition beyond their wildest expectations, other people start wanting in. And soon, what started as a game of friendship is spiraling into something dangerous and beyond their control-and before it's over, they'll pay the ultimate sacrifice.

      North Dakota is not known for its pigeons. Or forests, for that matter. The state bird is the western meadowlark, a mellifluous yellow songbird often seen singing on fence posts. Such posts substitute for trees in much of North Dakota. The state is p

      This book was so good. I literally wanted to turn to the front page and start again. I also want to know what happens next..... I am ok if that is the ending, mostly satisfied, but I would definately love to read more!

      “I sketched the four of us. Together... My best friends. The loves of my life. Strangers. Reeling. Ferocious... First we were four. Now we are three.”It starts with four friends, a secret society, and a desire to make memories to last beyond their final year together. Quickly, though, it’s out of their control, vying for justice in their small town, and not one of them could have predicted how it all would end.
    • 3/5
      Four teens start a secret society as a way to bond and have fun. Initially they were just going to play a few pranks, but once those pranks proved they actually had some power, things got out of control. They decided to find out who killed a girl who had been found at the location these four considered their private space. However, things got out of control and these four were not really ready to handle the truth. A price had to be paid for their actions. I really hated the violence perpetrated against animals. This book really did not need that.
