in which nine friends try to figure out what it means to be alive.

ᴛʜᴇ ʀᴇᴄᴋʟᴇꜱꜱ ᴋɪᴅꜱ of Melgrave thought they had it all figured out. Maybe not their lives or their grades or their subjects, but they knew their friends from their enemies, their lovers from their rivals, and all the strange acquaintances who fell somewhere in between. They knew their blackjack from their strip poker and their beer from their vodka. They knew the best hideaway in town, tucked beneath the roar of Station Bridge.
And they knew the devilish game which formed the ritual for all twelfth-graders at Melgrave: a series of ridiculous challenges aimed at only the most fearless, careless of students. For years, they had planned their teams and waited eagerly for the secrets of the game, knowing only the certainty of each other's names: ᴀꜱʜᴛᴏɴ, ᴄᴀʟᴜᴍ, ᴍɪᴄʜᴀᴇʟ, ʟᴜᴋᴇ, ᴍᴀᴛᴛʏ, ɴɪxɪᴇ, ɪʀɪꜱ, ꜱᴜɴʜᴇᴇ.
Then a new girl came tearing into town like a hurricane, and life as they knew was torn apart.
