Twenty-two years ago, Naomi Shaw believed in magic. She and her two best
friends, Cassidy and Olivia, spent that summer roaming the woods, imagining a
world of ceremony and wonder - the Goddess Game.
The summer ended suddenly when Naomi was attacked. Miraculously, she survived
her seventeen stab wounds and lived to identify the man who had hurt her. The
girls’ testimony put away a serial killer, wanted for murdering six women. They were
heroes.
And they were liars.
The day she learns that Alan Michael Stahl has died in prison, Naomi gets a call
from Olivia. For decades, the friends have kept a secret worth killing for. But
now Olivia wants to tell, and Naomi is forced back to the town she'd escaped.
She sets out to find out what really happened in the woods -no matter how
dangerous the truth turns out to be.
