Secrets are revealed. Loyalties are broken. Trust is betrayed.

Saige Reynolds has always known where she belongs in society. She's loyal, reliable, and hard-working; all good qualities to succeed in life. 

When her classmate, Vivian Fitzgerald, mysteriously vanishes one autumn night, Saige finds herself caught up in the midst of a police investigation, with all evidence pointing to her. To prove herself innocent, she must find out what really happened to Vivian.

While digging into her personal life with an unlikely ally, Saige uncovers secrets that may have been better left untouched, secrets that, if she isn't careful, may put her in more danger than she could have ever imagined.
