High-school seniors Lauren and Kady are on the brink of musical stardom (thanks, YouTube) when Lauren, stricken with severe food poisoning, damages her vocal cords. Kady goes solo and mysteriously vanishes a few months later, leaving Lauren as the prime suspect. The taut thriller features alternating (and not always reliable) narrators who, bit by tasty bit, reveal details of the girls' fraught friendship.
