Kay is one of the 'in' crowd - that group of admired, but abusive girls who can get away with anything. She decided to reinvent herself when she came to the school as a freshman by literally making a big splash. As a senior, Kay is trying to get a soccer scholarship (her parents put so much pressure on her to perform). Things are going along fine until she and her friends find the body of a classmate floating in the lake. It gets messy from there.
Through an email supposedly from the dead girl, Kay is blackmailed into outing the worst behavior of her friends. Kay has her secrets, too. She had done enough terrible things to others that she feels like she has no choice but to do what the email instructs.
Kay is ostracized, accused, and betrayed. Weighing on her mind through all of this is her cheating ex-boyfriend who she still feels connected to, her total infatuation on her best friend Brie (who may feel the same), and the death of her brother and best fried.
Nothing is straight forward in this story as Kay is pulled back and forth between her loyalties. Sometimes the people who seem the most guilty are the only ones who are nice to her and vice versa. It is an interesting and entertaining tangle for the reader.
