One of them was driving.
One of them was high.
One of them screamed.
And one of them died.
When high school sophomore Chris Moore is tragically killed in
a car crash, Armstrong Prep is full of questions. Who was at
the wheel? And more importantly, who was at fault?
Eighteen-year-old Spencer Sandoval wishes she knew. As
rumors swirl that her ex, Ethan, was the reckless driver, she
can't bring herself to defend him. And their messy breakup
has nothing to do with it - she can't remember anything from
that night, not even what put her in that car with Ethan,
Chris, and Tabby Hill, the new loner in school.
The hunt for answers intensifies when a local true crime
podcast takes an interest in the case, pushing Spencer
further into the depths of this sinister mystery. Was it all just
a night out that went very wrong? And is it a coincidence
that all but Chris is on Armstrong's esteemed honor roll, the
Headmaster's List? In a place ruled by pedigree and privilege,
the truth can only come at a deadly price.
