Ariel's birthday weekend looks to be the event of the season,
with a private concert by rock star Hudson Winters on the grounds
of her family's East Coast estate, and all of Ariel's elite prep
school friends in attendance. The only person who's dreading the
party is Sera, Ariel's former best friend, whose father is forcing
her to go. Sera has been the school pariah since she betrayed
Ariel, and she now avoids Ariel and their former friends. Thrown
together, Ariel and Sera can agree on one thing: this could be one
very long night. They have no idea just how right they are. Only moments after the concert begins and the lights go down,
thugs open fire on parents and schoolmates alike, in a plot
against Ariel's father that quickly spins out of control. As the
entire party is taken hostage, the girls are forced apart. Ariel
escapes into the hidden tunnels in the family mansion, where she
and Sera played as children. Only Sera, who forges an unlikely
alliance with Hudson Winters, knows where her friend could be. As
the industrial terrorist plot unravels and the death toll climbs,
Ariel and Sera must recall the sisterhood that once sustained them
as they try to save themselves and each other on the longest night
of their lives. pub date: 2012-12-18 | Hardcover | 9781440552700 |
