Samantha Jo Wyatt wakes up in a hospital with no memory of the hit-and-run accident that nearly killed her or the night her best friend, Cassie, disappeared. Before the trauma, Samantha was the cruel leader of her high school’s social hierarchy, but she returns home to a life she doesn't recognize and person she no longer likes. As she sifts through old journals and hostile interactions with former classmates, she realizes someone is watching her. The mystery centers on whether Cassie is still alive and if Samantha’s own forgotten memories hold the evidence of a crime.
