Baltimore police receive an urgent call out to Glendale High after gunshots are heard coming from a locked girls' toilet. It appears that three girls are in there, but only one, Josie, is conscious. The police cautiously enter the bathroom. They find three victims - Josie, whose wound seemed superficial; Perri, who is unconscious from a bullet that has ripped through her jaw; and Kat, who is dead, shot in the chest. The investigating team is led by Detective Harold Lenhardt - himself the father of an adolescent girl. He soon discovers information that is at odds with the story Josie is telling.
Years before this fatal shooting, three girls met and took a vow of eternal friendship. How did that passionate friendship change and evolve and finally fall apart? Here Laura Lippman combines police procedural with an intensely human, sad, eternal tale of growing up.
