Lyssa has been planning this moment for years.
Jason White assaulted her. His family protected him. They always do-they've gotten away with worse. Murder, even. But when Lyssa finally corners Jason in the empty school, knife in hand and years of rage coursing through her veins, she finds him already dead on the floor.
Someone beat her to it.
Now Lyssa has a choice: disappear and let the mystery die with Jason, or stay and hunt down who executed him-and why. Because in a town where the Whites have silenced victims and buried evidence for years, there are plenty of suspects with blood on their hands. Her neighbor Ryan, whose girlfriend was murdered for threatening to expose Jason. His father, William, exhausted from cleaning up his son's crimes. Even Lyssa herself looks guilty.
To dismantle the White family's empire of lies, Lyssa will have to play a lethal game. She'll have to find the killer before the killer pins the murder on her. And she'll have to decide if justice and revenge are the same thing.
In this dark psychological thriller, the real question isn't who killed Jason White.
It's whether they deserve to get away with it.
