From the critically acclaimed author of Honor Girl, comes a âsassy, sultry whodunitâ (School Library Journal) set in an Atlanta boarding school thatâs infused with subversive humor and featuring a cast of bizarre and unforgettable characters.
Itâs better to know the truth. At least sometimes.
Halfway through Friday nightâs football game, beautiful cheerleader Brittany Montagueâdressed as the giant Winship Wildcat mascotâhurls herself off a bridge into Atlantaâs surging Chattahoochee River.
Just like that, sheâs gone.
Eight days later, Benny Flax and Virginia Leeds will be the only ones who know why. Their search for the truth reveals a web of depravity hiding in plain sight at their picture perfect school. When love becomes obsession, how far will someone go to make their twisted fantasies a reality? And who has the power to stop them?
A twisty, turny mystery loaded with the perfect punch of satire and heart.
