Everyone is dying to join them.

Welcome to The Thrashers, the exclusive friend group of New Helvetia High. They are everything you want to be and everyone wants to be them.

Then there’s Jodi Dillion, the odd one out. The others—Julian, Lucy, Paige, and the infamous Zack Thrasher—are rich, sophisticated, and love being the center of attention; Jodi usually feels out of place. But Zack’s been her best friend since elementary school, so he says she’s in—and no one turns down the chance to be part of their group. Like Emily Mills. She wanted to be a Thrasher. More than anything.

But then Emily dies, and with her death, the whispers begin to circulate about The Thrashers—and what they do to people when they don’t want them around anymore. As a newfound journal of Emily’s comes to light, detectives begin to circle, and the media spirals out of control, putting Jodi in the impossible decision of turning on her friends, or protecting her own future.

Then a series of increasingly disturbing situations mount into a string of accidents that threaten the very lives of The Thrashers, and one thing becomes clear—Emily is not done with them yet.

A twisty thrill-ride of unforgettable drama and suspense that "encapsulates the vulnerability of adolescents playing adult games" (Ali Hazelwood) from USA Today bestselling author Julie Soto, The Thrashers will keep you up at night desperate to read just one more page.
