[Monster High 02] • The Ghoul Next Door

**Cleopatra de Nile**

**\- New pet snake

\- Has Deuce--the hottest guy in school--all warapped up

\- Herve Leger bandage dress, strappy gold platforms** ****

Cleo was the queen bee of the RADs, the normies, and everyone in between at Merston High. But now it's "Frankie this" and "Melody that" . . . these new girls sure know how to get her lashes in a tangle. When Cleo lands a golden *Teen Vogue* photo op for her friends, everything seems to be back on track . . . until they bail to be in some film . . . Frankie and Melody's film! *Can't a royal get some loyal?*

**Frankie Stein**

Frankie lost her head over Brett once and vows never to do it again. Not that she has a choice: Bekka is clinging to her guy like plastic wrap. But when Brett comes up with a plan that could help the RADs live free, sparks fly, and Bekka will stop at nothing to put out the flames . . . even if it means destroying the entire monster community.

**Melody Carver**

The clock is *tick-tick-tick* ing. Melody has a serious deadline to save her boyfriend, Jackson, from being exposed by the vengeance-seeking Bekka. But Cleo is making it royally difficult for the normie while threatening her acceptance into the RADs' exclusive group . . . a group that Melody suspects she has more in common with than she ever thought.

**Fitting in is out.**
