We get to hear from all the people who know Tabby: Elle, her best friend; Bridget, her younger sister; Keegan, best friend of Mark; Lou, classmate who has not liked Tabby for awhile. We also get to see police interrogations, news reports, diary entries, texts, and blog posts. Through each, we see a different Tabby.
Tabby was dating Mark, star swimmer at Princeton, while she was in high school. She had previously dated Beck who was now seeing Lou. Rumors spread that Tabby was cheating on Mark with Beck. People saw Mark and Beck confront each other at a party. Mark and Tabby were often seen fighting, although they were affectionate just as often. Tabby thought Mark was cheating on her when he was away at college.
Mark and Tabby hike in the woods to the well known dangerous cliff edge. Only she comes out. Some say Tabby didn't like the outdoors let alone hiking. So why did she go? Some say she planned the hike months in advance and that it was not a last minute idea. Only two people really know what happened. One is dead, and the other may never tell.
Sorting out the truth is almost impossible. Everyone sees things from a different perspective. I found myself going back and forth between believing Tabby was innocent or guilty. It makes for complex and fascinating story.
