ISBN: 9780762430857

CATHY’S BOOK was a groundbreaking, interactive novel that was a teen sensation. Perhaps less noticeable was the heart of the book: a good story well told. Now in CATHY’S KEY, fans of Cathy Vickers return to the exciting, unpredictable world that made the first book such a success.
Cathy was your average high school student --- doodling in the margins of her journal, crushing on a cute boy, and hanging out with her best friend Emma. As this story begins, she’s trying to keep a job, her journal is stolen, the cute boy is not who he seems to be, and even Emma’s side project/start-up company, Doubletalk Wireless, is about to get caught up in the mystery surrounding Cathy and her search for the truth about her presumed-dead father. It’s just a simple story really: Girl loves Boy, Boy disappears, Girl discovers secret that will alter the course of humanity...

Meet The Vampress Girls…
By day, Passion, Raven, Sweet and Page masquerade as human college students. By night, they are members of the fierce rock 'n roll band The Vampress Girls.
The Vampress Girls don't feed off of human blood --- they thirst instead for the raw energy of rock 'n roll. Together with their mother Love, they are the sole protectors of The Vampress Code, a book that has been passed down for centuries and holds the key to ancient secrets to the royal bloodlines that separate the vampires from the demons…and good from evil.
Shade and The Demon Girls, arch-enemies of The Vampress Girls, are plotting to steal the Vampress Code. If the code falls into the wrong hands, the world as we know it would be destroyed, and demons would roam the earth.
Now, The Vampress Girls must face off in an epic battle of the bands in order to save The Vampress Code and the fate of the world as we know it.

Sixteen-year-old Jayson Porter wants to believe things will get better. But the harsh realities of his life never seem to change. Living in the inland-Florida projects with his abusive mother, he tries unsuccessfully to fit in at his predominately white school, while struggling to maintain even a thread of a relationship with his drug-addicted father. As the pressure mounts, there’s only one thing Jayson feels he has control over --- the choice of whether to live or die.

Three girls who couldn't be more different have one goal in mind: to get the heck out of Dodge. Well, Niceville, Florida, actually. But it might as well be called Nowheresville. Vicks, Mel and Jesse have reasons as different as their personalities for climbing into Jesse's mom's beat-up station wagon. But armed with an old map, Mel's mom's credit card, a battered guidebook called FANTASTICAL FLORIDA, and their need for adventure, they're Miami-bound. And if they don't kill each other first, Vicks, Mel and Jesse will not only have a road trip to remember, they'll have friends for life.
