Returning to high school after two years of self-imposed homeschooling exile, Jay vows to use his superior computer hacking skills to solve the savage crime of who threw the acid that burned off half of classmate Nicole Castro's face. Griffin teases out various motives and sets up red herrings in this suspenseful mystery with elements of romance, high school dynamics, and teenage angst.
