From the New York Times bestselling author of the Testing trilogy comes the first novel in the pitch-perfect Glee Club mystery series. Even as a struggling opera singer, Paige Marshall has never seen anything like the cut throat competition of the Prospect Glen High School show choir. As their new coach, she’s getting an icy reception from championship-hungry students who doubt she can take them to a first-place trophy. Toughing this gig out may prove harder than scoring her big break... Especially now that her best young male singer is suspected of killing the arrogant coach of Prospect Glen’s fiercest rival choir. For Paige to clear his name, she’ll have to sort through a chorus of suspects—and go note-for-note with a killer who’ll do anything to knock her out of the spotlight for good.

These new essays examine the many ways that issues of gender and sexuality intersect with other identities and practices--including race, religion, disability, music and education--on the Fox hit program Glee. With gender and sexuality concerns at the crux, the authors tackle such specific aspects of the show as the coming out narrative, Glee fandom and fan fiction, representation of sex education, and the intersection of Broadway music and queerness. The aim of these essays is to open up a dialogue about Glee--which is often dismissed by critics and fans alike--and to reveal how scholars are critically engaging with the show around issues of gender and sexuality.

Excerpt from Glee and Chorus Book Slave songs and Rounds. Equally with the larger compositions of this book, the shorter ones have been no less carefully supplied with breathing marks to aid in the interpretation. The two patriotic songs: The Star Spangled Banner and America are printed in the rhythmic form adopted by the Music Section of the National Education Association. At the end of the volume there will be found a presentation of the essential facts of the Rudiments of Music. These are amply illustrated by music examples, and the text may be made the basis of test examinations in this subject.
