Back Cover

In Beacon Heights, Washington, five perfect girls have done some not-so-perfect things. . . . High school seniors Mackenzie, Ava, Julie, Parker, and Caitlin have been accused of murder--a murder they didn't commit. Sure, they talked about killing rich bully Nolan Hotchkiss, but it's just a coincidence that Nolan died in exactly the way they planned . . . right? Except Nolan wasn't the only enemy they mentioned that day. Each girl named someone else, someone she wished would just . . . disappear. They never meant for anyone to get hurt, but when someone else on their list dies, the girls wonder: Are they being framed? Or are they about to become the killer's next targets?
