THE SQUAD: PERFECT COVER Jennifer Lynn Barnes Paperback | Laurel-Leaf | 978-0-385-73454-7 (0-385-73454-9) | February 2008 | $6.99 | Ages 12 up

Part-time computer hacker extraordinaire Toby Klein never thought she would get the ultimate high school extra-curricular invitation—to be a cheerleader! Bayport High’s Varsity cheer squad is made up of the A-list crowd. In Toby’s world, pom-poms are a no-no. The head squad captain, Brooke Camden, knows that Toby would make a nice addition to team, but Toby would rather keep her combat boots any day. What Toby doesn’t know, is that the Squad is actually a cover for the most highly trained group of underage government operatives the United States has ever assembled.

Once she finds out that she’s about to be part of this elite team, she figures that it will at least get her out of detention.
