kiya always thought her life is easy, but once a tragedy leads to something dangerous....Seventeen-year-old Kiya is a focused 11th-grade student whose world centers on her academic goals and her respect for her favorite professor. When he is found brutally murdered, the school treats it as a closed case, but Kiya notices inconsistencies only a devoted student would recognize. Driven by grief and a need for justice, she trades her textbooks for a sleuth’s notebook, navigating the dangerous social hierarchies of high school and the dark secrets of the faculty lounge. As she digs deeper, Kiya realizes that her professor’s past was far more complex than his lectures—and that the killer is now watching her.
