Lisa Jackson and Nancy Bush

A tight-knit high school 'It' clique takes a dark turn when one member is lost to a tragedy. But it's only the first in a series of misfortunes as the friends become frenemies, and the girls become women who wonder who will be the last one standing..At Bristol High they were an elite clique known as the Five Firsts: Amanda, Bailey, Carmen, Delta and Zora. At a pre-graduation party just before the end of senior year, Tanner Stahd, the school daredevil, led a group down an embankment toward the river. One student was barely rescued in time to save his life. Carmen rushed to save him, but wasn't so lucky. Her sudden death was mourned; rumors of foul play swirled, but the tragedy is ruled an accident. Over the last fifteen years there have been more "accidents". As the body count rises, Detective Chris MaCrae--a Bristol High classmate and a friend of Tanner--is digging deep into the past to stop the rising body count. --adapted from jacket
