Holly, the daughter of one of the greatest and richest worldwide scientists, enters an educational institution for the first time in her life since her homeschooling years.
But it's highschool. And highschool is a dangerous place for people who don't know what to expect. Especially were all the rich kids are dumped.
Holly ends up upsetting the Able Brighton College's Queen Bee; Jessica Simpson, who isn't one to be messed with.
A war was declared.
But Holly was able to fight back with the help of her new friends: Carol, Nicki and Kelly. And Jay too!
Who was a close friend to the second person Holly had fought with in Able Brighton College.
The handsome, rich, badass, smart, lone wolf, determined, jerk; Alex Danvers, who didn't tolerate anyone's crap.
But who cared about Alex's existence when the caring, sweet boyish-smiling senior, Leo, was there for Holly? Always protecting her against the envious looks of the girls and from the lustful thoughts of the boys, like a big brother.
He was her knight in shining armor.
Through many connections, Holly sought the adventures of highschool. The tassel for Queen bee, the fight for cheerleader captain, the war for prom queen.
But in all a short time, those things didn't matter anymore...because someone important died.
Which causes the lives and fates of others to turn for the worst.
As Holly's relationship with others deepens, she begins to see the ties among all her friends and enemies. Her, Leo, Daniel, Carol, Nicki, Jay, Sam, Alex, Senior Marian that add up to the murder case of Jared Danvers.
Holly, thanks to her strong will and wit, finds out who the killer is, but could she talk? Her silence could ensure peace and injustice. Her voice could cause danger and threats.
The suspects, were both people she loved and feared...
... Slowly arising, were the dreaded questions that made students, citizens and the media run mad years ago;
Who shot Alex's brother?
And why?
"Can we stop feeling guilty, Amelia? Guilty for all the things that weren't our fault."
"We can Leo. Maybe someday."
"That day isn't far off Amelia. I'll make sure of it."

There is a lot to think about when you find out your best friend has been raped and murdered. There is even more to think about when you're the last person she saw the night she died.
But that's not what caused me to black out in the middle of a rocking party scene, surrounded by all the people I had known all my life.
It was when I saw who had killed her.
Hilarious, charming, the guy with the perfect quiff, and star quarter-back of the football team. He was loved by everyone. He was the guy you couldn't stay away from.
Levi Harrison.
My brother.
