It's been about a week since Gertrude last saw Edyn, or her wings. And the pain of that fateful night is beginning to feel less like a bullet to the heart, even though her nightmares-the ones that cause her to wake up in a screaming panic-seem to say otherwise. Bethany hasn't talked to her since that night at the party, Declan is sleeping on the couch in her living room, and now she has to wear an enormous cast on her leg, though she knows she doesn't need it. Even Maggie seems to be hiding yet another dark secret from her. To make matters even worse, she has made the brave decision to head back to school. Upon arriving on campus, Gertrude runs headfirst into someone-someone she never expected to see in a million years. But he doesn't remember her, or anything about the past he is a part of. And when a series of brutal murders and missing teens start plaguing the small town of Woodcrest Hills, the new kid in town begins to wonder if Gertrude-or even he-is to blame. Will Gertrude be able to help Riley remember his past? Will they find out who is responsible for the murders? Or will that someone find one of them first?
