Two years ago, Samantha Pillar's death left behind an unforgettable mark in Thornville. Her death was scrutinized by the media for weeks, and it was only when it was officially ruled as a suicide that the rumors finally died down. But just as the townspeople began to move on with their lives, Samantha's journal winds up in one girl's room-revealing everything that led up to the night of her death, and unmasking the web of lies hidden behind a once perfect facade. 

Promises are broken; ties are shattered as investigations take place. There are secrets, then betrayal, and the line between deception and the truth is suddenly a blur. Someone's about to learn the hard way that some secrets are meant to be kept buried. Because once the damage is done? 

It can never be reversed.

When Maude Calhoun disappeared, her town mourned her, and we forgot her. That is, until a girl is dead and one of us killed her-or so Maude claims. She has sent out six tapes, polished and perfumed, with our names, singing soliloquies of her three sacred laws: Rule No. 1: All must listen to the tapes together. Rule No. 2:Each tape shall be safeguarded, its skeletons shared with none. Rule No. 3: To transgress these laws or fail to find the next tape will invite the gravest of punishments. Maude knows of the vicious secrets that we keep and the lies we choke on. But the more the line between sense and madness blurs as we play her game, the more we are forced to trust each other. We know none of us killed the girl. After all, perfect suspects rarely seek the truth-or do they just bury it first? But dead ends around every curve, it seems like the list is narrowing. Someone killed a girl. And who's to say that one of us isn't truly a little vicious?
