Sammendrag: På Armstrong High, en privilegeret privatskole i Los Angeles, ender en sommerfest med en dødbringende bilulykke. Spencer Sandoval overlever, men husker kun brudstykker. Hun har netop opnået en plads på den prestigefyldte Headmaster’s List, og nu er hendes fremtid og rygte truet. Sammen med venner og fjender forsøger hun at stykke begivenhederne sammen: Hvem kørte, hvem var påvirket, og hvem bærer ansvaret for ulykken? En lokal true crime‑podcast graver samtidig aggressivt i sagen, hvilket øger presset og afslører hemmeligheder på skolen. Historien skifter mellem spændingsplot, high school‑drama og psykologisk mysterium, hvor temaer som status, klasse, sociale medier, rygter og sandhedens pris udforskes. Bogen er målrettet YA-læsere, der kan lide moderne, tempofyldte thrillere sat i et glitrende, men mørkt amerikansk ungdomsmiljø.
