Michael Andrew Jones didn't *want* to move to Devon Rock, a small town miles away from even the tiniest of highways. But here he is, and here he will stay. And it certainly won't be boring. As he quickly learns, even middle-of-nowhere towns have their fair share of secrets. Like, why will no one talk to him? Who are the strange twins down his block? What's with the legless David statue that keeps popping up? And why is a 16-year-old dressed in a cowboy hat treated with more respect than the police?
When Jane Madarang's neighbor Natalie kills herself and leaves behind cryptic instructions, it's up to Jane and her classmates to unearth deadly secrets.
