Hooke's Law

❝Hooke's Law: The more you stretch a spring, the greater the force of the spring.❞

Indigo is a good girl.

Indigo has never done anything wrong.

Indigo is at her breaking point.

Indigo Thatcher's only goal in life has always been to be the top student. That was where she belonged and it was where she would stay, and not a single person was going to stop her. Then one day Indigo meets a boy who wants to kill his father, barreling her down an adventure that grants her the life she's never had and into a test of how far she can stretch before she finally snaps.
