Prologue

Following the events of "The Perfectionists"; nobody knows who killed popular Ben or skeazy teacher Jay Maraj, but Evie, Mal, Jane, and Uma remain under a cloud of suspicion. And they know something is not right, too: They were the ones who made a list of who they wanted dead one fateful day in Mr. Marajs class, and Ben was on the list. They try to go about their lives in their well-to-do suburb -- Uma makes co-captain of her soccer team and Jane meets a cute boy who also will be going to Juilliard next year -- but then more of the people they listed are turning up as victims. Is it possible one of them is actually responsible for these horrible crimes?
