''The Shadow Club'' is a book written by Neal Shusterman about two middle school students, Jared Mercer and Cheryl Gannett, who see themselves as the "second best" students in their school at the activities that they do best.
==Plot synopsis==
Jared Mercer and Cheryl Gannett are second bests at their school, so they decide to form a club consisting of their school's other second bests. Their club is called the Shadow Club, consisting of other students who also consider themselves to be "in the shadows" of people who are better than them at the things they are good at. They start out by pulling pranks to humiliate their enemies, the "unbeatables". However, their pranks quickly escalate, to the point of becoming dangerous. In addition, the most recent pranks were not carried out by the Shadow Club at all and the students believe that they are being framed by Tyson, their school's biggest underachiever and pyromaniac. The pranks climax when Jared's biggest enemy, a student training to be an Olympic racer, is permanently injured. After this even, the members of the Shadow Club gather to discuss their problem and decide that their only solution is to force a confession out of Tyson. Meanwhile, Jared, who has not taken part of Tyson's interrogation, discovers that it was not Tyson who pulled the pranks, it was the members of the Shadow Club, each acting independently, so that none of the others knew of their actions, so that each of them truly believed that they were all being framed. Realizing their mistake, Jared rushes back to find the members of the club holding Tyson underwater, torturing him, until he confessed.
