In the small town of Flatrock, Texas, secrets never stay buried.

When a low-level drug dealer turns up brutally murdered, the crime sends shockwaves through Flatrock, a town already rotting beneath its quiet surface.

Seventeen?year?old Tom Preston is counting the days until he can escape his contemptible family and the small town of Flatrock, but when his younger sister becomes entangled in the murder, Tom becomes trapped in a nightmare of loyalty, lies, and impossible choices. Protecting his sister means carrying a secret that could cost him his future - and even his freedom. As rumors spread and suspicions grow, Tom finds himself caught between a stepfather with a talent for turning fear into obedience, a corrupt social hierarchy, and a law enforcement investigation that's more interested in quickly closing the case than achieving justice.

Tom must decide whether to stay silent and save his sister or speak up to save himself - until another terrible choice presents itself that just might save them both.
