Emily Mitchell is just a girl, a normal teenager, but her background - that's different, it's hidden - it's become the thing that everyone will do anything to uncover, but they're just students and Emily, Emily is someone to look out for.
But nobody's perfect, her survival follows the lines of a crappy, motivational, English aphorism; 'Fake it til you make it'.
How sad is that?
So, what would you do if this was you, your life? Would you expect the ones you've known the longest to the be the thing that brings it all tumbling down?
