When nude photos of a teacher are posted anonymously online, it becomes clear that three students in her senior law seminar--whose project topic is ironically about online privacy--each has his or her own motivation for publishing the (deceitfully obtained) pictures. Lo's novel effectively traces each student's personal history and raises complex ethical questions on its way to the truth.

Outgoing and rebellious Annie moves with her father to her stepmom's home in the suburbs. On the first day of school, she meets Jessie, an anxious loner, and the two become best friends. Once Annie begins hanging out with Jessie's past tormentors, however, things derail quickly. The issues are well worn--mean-girl bullying, teen pregnancy, emotional problems--but Lo's narrative will keep readers engaged.
