Seventeen-year-old senior Everly Hope Rodgers wants nothing more than a normal year after the traumatic events that took place right before summer vacation.
The hope for normal is short lived as her parents have uprooted her and moved a state away and thrust into a big city and enrolled her into a pretentious private school. Unfortunately for her, news of the events that took place had been broadcasted nationwide, and she's left the outsider with a dark past with people hiding from her around every corner.
Finally coming to terms with the horrific series of events that nearly left her dead, Everly finds sanctuary in her eccentric art teacher and athlete Garrett Brooks, and enlists the help of her sweet psychiatrist to try and break it down to the root of it all and if it could have been prevented
But for a girl who is caught in the grey area between right and wrong and reporters circling like vultures everywhere she turns, can she navigate her way through high school, or more importantly, the rest of her life?

"As kids we grow up preparing for everything but I don't think anyone can prepare you for when someone brings a gun to school. As teachers they give us those talks about intruders and sure when the class clown cracks a joke about using safety scissors as a weapon everyone laughs. When it comes down to it though everyone has one goal... survive."
