Allison Pierce never thought she could ever move on from her boyfriend's death. So she leaves, runs away from all the questions, all of the drama at school. About one year later, her and her mother decide that it is time to move back home and back to school just in time for her senior year. She thinks it's going to be normal but she realises people are still talking about the accident. It was a terrible first day for her until she meets one of the new guys. His name is Adam Winters. Allison is very intrigued by him and (by what people are saying) his mysterious yet dangerous past and she is determined to find out what it is.
