It's been one year since Rayne Foster killed a young girl in the middle of the street, and after months of endless therapy, she still doesn't remember it happening. The psychiatrists at Aurora Hospital finally approve her transfer to Maria J. Westwood Correctional, a glorified reform school for the wealthiest teens in America; the steep tuition pays for a fresh start, wherein students can graduate and receive forged diplomas from blue-ribbon schools across the nation. Clean slate.
But there are dark secrets on campus. A hidden history of blood, death, and darkness.
Spirits haunt the campus grounds in the form of whispers, shadows, and vague apparitions. Rayne is one of the only students who can see them, and given her history of hallucinations, she begins to wonder if they are even real. That is until one night, she discovers a young boy on campus who can see them too.
Could it be she's really not alone?
Together, they may be the only ones who can put an end to the murders that terrorize the prim hallways of Maria J. Westwood. Rayne is determined to unlock the school's secrets in order to save her peers, whilst uncovering the secrets of her own past as well...

His face was set in a glare, his dark hair, messy, as if all he had done to get ready was shake his head around. It was the guy, Adrien, who was separated from Riley's group. He was tall. I was average height, maybe even slightly above average but Adrien towered over me, I had to look up at him. "What fucking right do you have to come to his school." Adrien snarled. He knew. I didn't know him though. • • • warnings: mature themes and violence, drug abuse, mentions of overdose, mentions of sexual assaultComplete
