FADED

They were the girls you desperately wanted to be.

They ruled the halls of your elite private school with perfectly manicured iron fists, their cold beauty leaving trails of broken hearts and crushed spirits in their wake. Their sticky, lip glossed smiles and bright eyes masked the malicious monsters that lay underneath, but nothing could disguise the viciousness with which they hunted their prey. They were measured kindness and calculated cruelty as they toyed with their victims, laughing all the while. After all, it was all just a game.

Until one of their little games is found dead, frozen at the bottom of Eshwire Lake.

And just like that, the gilded goddesses begin to fall apart at the seams. Wild child Corrine Brandt wears her short skirts and bright lipstick and pretends like nothing ever happened as she turns to drink and drug to forget the pale green eyes that haunt her nightmares. Southern belle Laura Beth Langley seeks solace in the Lord and Savior she once renounced to atone for her sins. Leader Abigail Vanderbilt-Ross holds her head high in an effort to keep it all together as friends from her past encourage her slow descent into madness.

They are the richest, the smartest, the most powerful of their kind. But they have the blood of innocence on their hands.

And her ghost won't let them forget it.
