Lycroft Phelps is a school of excellence, only the creme de la creme attend.
This year some of those talented students include Quinn Walsh, Max Hannigan-Loeffler and Charlotte Foresley.
Charlotte is the classic, quintessential Phelps student and is determined to make the most of her time there.
Max is a bit of a try hard, the outside, under dog, never selected for anything, until that is, he is picked to be on the rowing team.
Quinn, well Quinn is a broken mess due to her rape at the hands of Colin Pearce, a student who is still on campus, a student who if Quinn has her way, won't be there much longer...
The school is hiding many secrets but if this gets out its reputation will be ruined.
But the girls are rising, they are taking control and determined this rape culture HAS to end.
A slow burn at first but the background detail was necessary and it bloomed into a very powerful novel with SERIOUS social issues that are sadly relevant.
