Jodi never asked to be a Thrasher – a member of the high school elite.
But Jodi has been best friends with Zack Thrasher her whole life, and
like it or not, that means she’s branded a Thrasher by the rest of the
school. And different as she feels to the other four Thrashers – all
talented, privileged and beautiful – she can’t help appreciating her
social status, especially compared to her violent home life.
But being a Thrasher isn’t worth dying for – except, apparently, it was
to Emily Mills. Sweet but intense Emily, whose fixation on Zack brought
her close to the in-crowd, but never close enough. Emily, who took her
own life on prom night.
When a detective finds a copy of Emily’s diary, there are whispers that
she was ‘Thrashed’ – bullied to death by Zack and his gang. They are
arrested, charged, and ostracised, their once bright futures
extinguished. Then begin the texts from unfamiliar numbers,
inexplicable light flares, the run of bad luck that becomes a string of
near-fatal accidents… and the constant dreams of Emily.
But something isn’t adding up. The diary is too convenient. In fact,
it’s filled with Jodi’s own secrets, repurposed by Emily. But why?
One thing is clear. Emily isn’t done with the Thrashers.
