There have been notes of homicide in St. Louis, Missouri, and everyone is on edge. Business eventually falls short for the Little Daisy Cafe and the Hotel Maribel, causing both the trio of Marigold and Lackadaisy to put matters into their own hands, and, much to Freckle's concern, Ivy's amusement, Rocky's insanity, the Savoy siblings entertainment, and Mordecai's everlasting migraine with these people, join forces to figure out what this phenomena is. However, they all had one thing in common, despite the different sides: keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer.

A list. Twenty names. One killer no one can find.
When an anonymous social media account starts posting a hit list of students from Westbrook High, panic spreads like wildfire. The town is in chaos. The police have no leads. And as each name is crossed out, one by one, it becomes clear: no one is safe.
For Ivy, the list is a death sentence she never signed up for. For Rowan, it's just another game she refuses to lose. They were strangers before this-now, survival ties them together in a way neither of them expected.
With a secret alliance forming between those on the list, Ivy and Rowan are forced to rely on each other. Hatred turns into something else, something sharp and breathless. But as the bodies pile up, one thing becomes clear: someone is watching.
And they don't just want to kill. They want to play.
