Emily Reyes has spent the last two years haunted by the loss of her best friend, Alyssa Moreno. Alyssa was murdered on March 9, 2019, at a wild high school party-a night of chaos, drinking, and secrets. The police are still chasing leads, but with no answers, Alyssa's death has become a distant, unsolved mystery for everyone except Emily.

Now 17, Emily is navigating her junior year of high school with her boyfriend, Lucas Rivera, by her side. Lucas is everything she needs-charming, supportive, and the only person who seems to truly understand her pain. But when the anniversary of Alyssa's death approaches, cracks begin to show in Lucas's perfect facade. Strange comments, unsettling actions, and buried memories begin to resurface, leaving Emily questioning the truth about the night Alyssa died.

As Emily dives deeper into uncovering what really happened at that fateful party, she finds herself torn between love and suspicion. The closer she gets to the truth, the darker the secrets surrounding her boyfriend become. Could the person she trusts most be the one who shattered her world?

The Day After is a gripping tale of mystery, betrayal, and romance, weaving through the intoxicating highs of teenage parties and the dangerous lows of uncovering hidden truths. With every drink, every kiss, and every clue, Emily must decide how far she's willing to go for justice-and whether love is worth the cost of losing herself.
