BRUISES

Seven friends. Six alive. One dead. A dark past, truths and lies, and a forgetful story.

Fame isn't for the faint of heart. This is something Theodora Adler knows well, as she's just beginning her life as a 25-year-old bestselling author. Disillusioned by her success, she receives a call from an old friend-their former best friend, one of seven in their old group from high school, is dead.

Returning to the town she left behind is hard, and even harder knowing that Rubies is gone and she'll have to face the group of girls that was never the same after one fateful night at a party. Overcoming grief and confusion between being the storyteller and a real person. This is the journey of six girls with a past, and one dead girl who can fix it all.
