| Summary |
The wealthy enclaves north of San Francisco are not the paradise they appear to be, and nobody knows this better than the students of a local high school. Despite being raised with all the opportunities money can buy, these vulnerable kids are navigating a treacherous adolescence in which every action, every rumor, every feeling, is postable, shareable, viral. Into this complicated web arrives an idealistic young English teacher. Molly Nicoll strives to connect with her students - without understanding the middle school tragedy that is reverberating in different ways for all of them. Writing with the rare talent that turns teenage drama into urgent, adult fiction, Lindsey Lee Johnson makes vivid a modern adolescence lived in the gleam of the virtual, but rich with sorrow, passion, and humanity |
