Seventeen-year-old Neve Spencer is a self-proclaimed genius, and a mastermind at solving crimes. But she does it all under the guise of Miss Observant, an anonymous tipster to the police about various cold cases.
Enter James Hayfield. Nicknamed Ink, both as a reference to his multitude of tattoos and a shortened version of his street fighting name “Mr. Incredible”, he and his temper are rather famous at Greencrest High. Perhaps that’s why, when Ink’s childhood-friend-turned-enemy Nathaniel Hart is murdered, police immediately arrest Ink, thinking he’s guilty.
But for the second time in her life, Neve finds herself disagreeing with the police and, most importantly, her father. And though she would rather Ink be stuck in a windowless cell with only an axe murderer as company, she can’t let an innocent man go to jail and a guilty murderer walk free. So she makes a deal with Ink: help her find the real killer, and she’ll help him to clear his name.
Yet as tempers grow short and the suspect list grows longer, Neve and Ink are running out of time fast. Will they really be able to find who really killed Nathaniel Hart before Ink gets arrested?
