"Riveting and timely, this shocking slice-of-life drama is sure to keep pages turning."—Publishers Weekly

Three junior high school girls—Jenna, Suzanne, and Claire—best friends at Oakdale Middle School, finally summon the courage to speak up about their music teacher, Frederick Mattero.

What happens next is chaos. Parents are called. A teacher is accused and attacked. The gossip mill churns like mad. And police arrive to question other students, beginning with Mr. Mattero’s eighth-grade daughter, Melody, a quiet girl known for her poetry.

Are the three girls simply lying? Did Mr. Mattero do anything inappropriate? And as another girl enters the picture, a complicated situation grows even more complex.
