When the detention session ends, Simon is found dead. With investigators ruling the death as no accident, the attention quickly turns to the four remaining students, each now a prime suspect in Simon’s untimely demise. As secrets unravel, it becomes evident that all four students have something to hide—and someone among them might be willing to do whatever it takes to keep their secrets from surfacing.
