Description

People are dying under mysterious circumstances in the small town of New Haven. And the city's best hope of uncovering the truth rests with a troubled teen and the girl who can't stand him.

Cassie Underwood's life is shattered when her younger sister dies in a freak car accident. In her grief, Cassie unfairly blames her sister's constant companion-Taggart McGill-a boy with a sketchy past and abrasive personality. As Cassie attempts to recover from the loss, she struggles to honor her late-sister's memory by befriending the person she resents most.

Things get complicated when Cassie overhears a fellow student asking Taggart to convince the police another death in the accident had nothing to do with the crash at all. Taggart surprisingly agrees and a suspicious Cassie decides to accompany him in his snooping. She soon learns everything she knows about Taggart is wrong... and he has insight into things that link the car accident to other suspicious deaths in their close-knit community.

Is Taggart McGill the "prick" everyone says he is, or will uncovering his secrets be the key that keeps Cassie's name off the mounting list of victims?
