At Beacon Heights High, Nolan Hotchkiss is king. All while Nolan continues to reign, unquestioned and undisrupted. But one thing they do share: they all have a deep hatred of Nolan Hotchkiss. They come up with the perfect murder - a hypothetical murder, of course. Nolan has been killed - in exactly the way they planned.

At Beacon Heights High, Nolan Hotchkiss is king. His charm, wealth and good looks are deceptively seductive, and many are the students whose lives and reputations have been ruined by them. All while Nolan continues to reign, unquestioned and undisrupted. Until now, that is.

Mackenzie, Ava, Julie, Caitlin and Parker don't seem to have much in common. Each has her own friends, dramas and goals. But one thing they do share: they all have a deep hatred of Nolan Hotchkiss. And they all think it's about time he paid for the things he's done. They come up with the perfect murder - a hypothetical murder, of course. It's all wishful thinking ... until they wake up one morning to find that their wish has come true. Nolan has been killed - in exactly the way they planned. The thing is, they didn't do it. So who did?
