Outside, Anika Dragomir is all lip gloss and blond hair - the third most popular girl in school. Inside, she's a freak.

A wealthy businessman is dead, and fifteen-year-old Ruby Monroe is in a Dallas jail awaiting trial for his murder.

Cadence is familiar with the cold reality of Ruby’s situation, even before Ruby was arrested. Angry and alone, homeless and hungry, breaking the law just to survive, she is the kind of girl no one wants to listen to, especially not the prosecutor who wants to put her away for life.

So, I took it and gladly let myself get pulled to the bottom of the ocean, but what I found there is more shocking than I could ever imagine.
