It's been four months since the incident that changed Easton's life forever. Now living in Halson, Colorado, he discovers it's not that easy to balance his friends, school, and soccer while trying to cope with his past.
However, upon meeting Naiya at a party one night, things start to change. Suddenly, Easton feels like his life might be looking up.
And then things start to go downhill. Fast. Letters from Easton's brother, Damon, are being sent to him from prison. Though at first they seem harmless in nature, Easton starts to notice a pattern. Not only has Damon rekindled the horrors of Easton's past, but he presents a new danger that threatens Easton's safety.
Suddenly Easton feels he might not be quite as safe in Halson as he initially thought.
Damon Reynolds is a snarky, rebellious 16-year-old who's just moved with his mom to Copper Cove, Pennsylvania to live with his soon-to-be stepdad. Having been expelled from his previous school, he is enrolled in Copper Cove Academy as a final attempt to avoid getting sent to juvenile detention. During his first day, he learns of Sky Mitchell, a student at the academy who went missing over summer break. Damon aids his new friend group in her search, growing closer with them in the process and even developing feelings for one in particular. But their investigation briefly comes to a halt after a traumatic incident occurs during the school's Halloween dance. Then they all begin receiving threats from a mysterious individual known as 'Montgomery'. When the search resumes, will Damon and the others be able to uncover the truth of Sky's disappearance? Or will their investigation be forced to stop again, this time permanently?
