Description

The students at Fullbrook Academy are the elite of the elite, famous for their glamour and excess. Their traditions are sacred. But they can hide dark and dangerous secrets. Jules is in her senior year with one goal: to get out and start her life at college. Jamie is a sports star on a scholarship; Fullbroke is his chance to escape his past. After a school party ends in disaster, the two discover a terrible truth. Can they stand together against Fulbrook’s most toxic traditions? This work is a startling portrait of privilege and rape culture, but it is also ultimately a story about resistance and hope, the power of friendship to embolden our integrity, and the courage to do the right thing even when everyone else seems to be doing wrong. It takes a sledgehammer to our rotten, dangerous, and deeply ingrained traditions, so that we can build something new and beautiful in their place.
