Opal Indick lives in the smallest and quietest town in the world, and she is fed up with the silence. Her only hope is Mrs. Wilkes, her professor whose stare lingers a little longer than it should. Having to choose between the relationship she already has with a girl her own age or the forbidden fruit propelling her desires, Opal finds her life and mental state falling apart. But when a string of violent murders begin occurring in the town where nothing ever happens, Opal begins to fear not only those around her, but herself. [tw: sex, violence, non-descriptive mentions of rape and suicide]
