Description

When Becky James is asked to show around a new student, Gene Newman, she agrees – it’ll be a great addition to her college applications. But as Gene and Becky grow closer, he confides that he has a secret – one that turns Becky’s life upside down.

Becky James lives in a small town where nothing ever changes. But there’s something very different about the new student, Gene Newman.

Brilliant, talented, and socially awkward, Gene is like nobody else Becky has ever known. Little does she know just how different he actually is.

Gene confides in Becky that he has a secret. More than that, he is a secret. And, apparently, it’s a secret worth killing for.
