Autumn Hale is the average teenager who happens to stumble across Jamie Jackson through an encounter with a thief.
An entirely different school meets her way as she tries to fit in. But all is not a piece of cake with a girl despising her for an unknown reason and a catastrophic event that she foolishly decided to be involved in.
One late school night after an afterschool study class, a group of teenagers with balaclavas on their faces corner an innocent soul with hatred in their eyes. They cornered her in the bathroom, breaths stenched with strong alcohol as they covered her mouth with masking tape. Their intentions were to beat her as close to death as possible without resulting in death but one final blow brings it too far.
The corpse was hurridly burried under many pieces of unused junk in an old storage room.
After a rough incident, Autumn finds herself locked in the same room. Being there, she happened to have stumbled across the corpse of the missing girl. Police came and took away the body. No evidence. No fingerprints.
Autumn decides to investigate further. She finds objects of that girl that were more important than she thought. They were the closest clues to discovering her murderers and why in the world they hated her so much. Along the journey, she bumps into Jamie who happens to be quite curious too. They say they would trust eachother and be in this together but no one was too good at going by that rule. Only they same questions were asked over and over in their heads.
Who did it? And most importantly, why?
