The perfect girl. The perfect life. The perfect murder.
Caitlyn Coates had it all-beauty, brains, money, and a future as dazzling as her smile. With Yale on the horizon and graduation just weeks away, she should have been celebrating. Instead, she's dead. All that remains of Highland Park High's golden girl is a pinky finger, a clump of hair, and a red silk thong-clues that ignite a media frenzy and leave her affluent Chicago suburb reeling.
Enter Detective Brandon, a seasoned cop with little patience for gossip and even less for lies. But in a community where appearances mean everything, everyone has a secret worth protecting. Paired with an eager rookie and hounded by relentless press coverage, Detective Brandon must navigate a web of privilege, envy, and betrayal to uncover the truth.
Told through multiple perspectives-including Caitlyn's own chilling voice from beyond the grave-this twisting psychological thriller reveals that the deadliest lies aren't the ones spoken aloud, but the ones left unsaid.
Highland Park has always looked perfect from the outside. But peel back the glossy surface, and you'll find that perfection can be deadly.

He needs to understand that I don't have a choice. Or do I? "I do too. But...Why are you saying it like that?" He asked, feeling a little anxious. "Like what?" I replied, praying to dear God he doesn't say something that'll make me cry. "Like you're saying goodbye." 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Alexis Pierce is just another high school clumsy story.
