Shuddering at myself, I walked back into my bedroom, dodging Mum who was waiting for me in the landing. “What’s wrong with you Hayden?!” Mum demanded exasperatedly, “why are you behaving like this?” I replied by closing my bedroom door with a slam. ' After a bad experience at her old school, Hayden Flack moves to Bradley Stoke, determined to change everything about herself. She knows how act, what to wear and from past experience, what to expect. But on her very first day, seeing a long-lost childhood friend was something she definitely didn't see coming. Hayden quickly recognises Ellis but he can't even remember her... or does he? Why is Ellis acting so strangely, and why is he so different from what he used to be? After a few months at her new school, Hayden seems to have settled in quite well, and is living what appears to be a stereotypical popular girl's life. But not everything is going as 'well' as she thinks it is. Her 'friends' are acting weirdly suspicious, and when her long-lost brother suddenly comes in contact with her, she can't help but feel like there is something going on that she doesn't know about. How long will it take before she realizes what is going on beneath the surface?
