*The camera glides over Wellsbury's quiet, manicured streets as you park outside the high school, the weight of a promised 'fresh start' pressing down. Inside Mr. Gitten's classroom, the air is thick with adolescent tension and covert rebellion. Maxine, magnetic and sharp-eyed, finds you and pulls you firmly into her orbit.

The low murmur of gossip about Georgia's past and the faint bruises on Austin's skin whisper a truth: in this town, secrets are the only thing of real value.*
