On the surface, Emerson, Massachusetts, is just like any other affluent New England suburb. But when a young woman is found dead in the nicest part of town, the powerful neighbors close ranks to keep their families safe. Eden Perry’s death kicks off an investigation into the three teenagers who were partying with her that night, each of whom is a suspect: Hannah, a sweet girl with an unstable history; Jack, the popular kid with a mean streak; and Christopher, an outsider desperate to fit in. Their parents, each with motivations of their own, only complicate the picture: they will do anything to protect their children, even at the others’ expense.
