She remembers the party.
She remembers the music, the alcohol, the laughter.
She remembers her best friend pulling her aside and telling her they needed to talk.
After that?
Nothing.
The next morning, seventeen-year-old Mara Vale wakes up alone in her bedroom with a splitting headache, a phone full of missed calls, and absolutely no memory of how she got home.
Then she finds the message.
3:17 AM
If you're reading this, I'm already dead.
Don't trust anyone.
Especially him.
The message was scheduled to send automatically.
But there's one problem.
Mara's best friend, Evelyn, isn't dead.
At least, that's what everyone keeps telling her.
Evelyn is simply missing.
The police think she ran away. Her parents think she's hiding somewhere. Their friends think Mara knows more than she's saying.
And Mara starts to wonder if they're right.
Because the more she tries to piece together the missing hours of that night, the more things stop making sense.
A photograph she doesn't remember taking.
Blood on a dress she doesn't remember wearing.
A stranger who insists they met before.
And a second message from Evelyn's phone.
One that wasn't scheduled.
I saw what you did
