In the town of Carbondale live multiple teens with much different stories than usual.
Marcus Bonn, a sixteen year old sophomore, has been living with cerebral palsy his whole life due to a failed abortion attempt by his homophobic, abusive redneck family. He realizes he is gay, but would be beaten if his family found out. So he pursues his secret life by drawing paintings and keeping them "in his closet." When he meets a boy that will change his life, his life changes for the good, but Marcus's dark past could trigger horrible outcomes, or, could it be positive change?
Jake Leeds, seventeen, is also hiding a big secret: he's a gay music lover! But, all of Carbondale sees him as a straight jock. He's outed when his teenage hormones make him show a homosexual act in the locker room towards a boy named David, making him lose all of his friends and personal respect. His sister, Haley, is in Marcus's class and is very close to him, but a dark past and secret feelings of her own will cause her relationship with herself and her family to plummet. When Jake meets Marcus, the two immediately bond, but the pathway to full trust is shaky. After all, Marcus, the poor kid with the disabilities isn't hiding any other secrets of his own, is he?
David Hernandez is a Mexican student studying at Carbondale, but he is facing problems of his own. When the local authorities find out that David's father has been living undocumented, anything but the truth can keep this family together.
Three anonymous writers who tell their own Carbondale High stories cause three huge problems to corrupt the city of Carbondale, but the problem is, who are they?

"Who the fuck are you and what are you doing here?" Caleb demanded in a hushed whisper, he also noticed the black backpack the stranger was carrying and the open living room window he'd clearly used to gain entry, the vase that was previously rested on the windowsill lay in pieces on the ground, that must've been the crash that had awoken Caleb from his tranquil slumber. "Just a passerby, no one much" the strange man whispered back an air of mystery hanging about his every word. "Inside my living room?" Caleb replied folding his arms and sizing the man up, after his beating earlier in the evening he wasn't exactly fighting fit, the intruder was also taller and muscly, there's no way Caleb would win if it came to a fight. "Consider me Santa Claus alright? Now go back to bed kid" the man answered calmly pointing at the door as if Caleb was a child. "I'm not a little kid anymore, I'm 18. Santa isn't real" Caleb responded harshly taking a step forward, the man noticeably took a step towards the window eyeing Caleb up with a smirk.
