"Whores on the Hill" is ostensibly about a group of friends at an all-girls high school in Milwaukee in the '80s. Readers follow the perspective of the new girl, Thisbe, as she is initiated into the clique calling themselves the "whores on the hill," and who delight in being "so Lisa Bonet, so she-wolf, so commando- going, get-your-freak-on, powerhouse sex bombs" - doing what they want, when they want, and telling the rest of the world to, well, you know.
