By S.B. Cody

Book Overview

A mass shooting and police brutality shake a small town to its core--and uncover its darkest secrets--in a timely debut thriller from a stunning new voice.

When the town of Stanford, Missouri, falls victim to a school shooting, it sets in motion a chain of events that no one could predict.

After two masked men murder 28 people, only to escape unseen, it hangs over the town like a cloud, which adds to the tension after an unarmed African American teenager, Noah, was shot and killed by police.

Meanwhile, teacher Connor Sullivan is dealing with the aftermath of the school shooting, having been hailed a hero. But Connor doesn't feel like a hero. And Connor is haunted by more than just the shooting.

As the police search for the perpetrators, they wonder if the murders are linked to Noah's death.

With tensions rising in a town torn apart by tragedy, will it ever be possible to get justice when it's not clear who the victims really are?
