At New Helvetia High, a clique of five of the school’s social elite, known as the Thrashers, reigns supreme. They cut people out of their circle without flinching and are less than kind to those who want to be part of their inner circle. When one of their classmates, Emily, dies by suicide the night of prom, everyone blames the Thrashers and their bullying. Social dynamics, strange messages, and buried secrets come to a head in this tense debut novel.

High school junior Danika is determined to join her mother’s private investigation agency, but her mom insists she must go to college and get an education first. She harnesses her skills into tarot readings for her classmates in the meantime. But when one of her clients disappears, Danika teams up with the girl’s little sister, and, with a little help from her mom, the pair set out to find her.
