Overnight, in a small town, careers, friendships, reputations, and futures are all on the line in a razor-sharp novel about scandals, secrets, and hard-earned dreams coming true. A small-town campus is rocked by scandal. Suddenly, four women find themselves in the crosshairs of an investigation that threatens to upend their lives. Lauren is the wife of a charismatic, now disgraced, university athletic director. To keep their marriage from crumbling, she's cleaned up his messes before. This one she never saw coming. Nora is the director's interim replacement. The groundbreaking career she's worked for is on the rise. As wife of the English department's dean, so is the scrutiny and the pressure. Anne is Nora's wide-eyed intern, thrust unprepared into the chaos of a headline-making story. And there's Alexis, an English professor in panic mode. Her own secret has always been safe. Until now. As the media descends, colleagues and friends begin to question everything they thought they knew about each other. Every one of them is getting caught off guard. And it feels like the whole world is watching.
