Inner Circle

Reed Brennan arrived at Easton Academy expecting to find an idyllic private school experience—challenging classes, adorably preppy boys, and a chance to create a new life for herself. Instead, she discovered lies, deception, blackmail, and murder. But, thankfully, the killers were caught and the nightmare is finally over.

Now, with a new school year ahead of her, Reed steps back on Easton's ivy-covered campus ready to start over. So when the headmaster announces that Billings is forbidden from holding their traditional, secretive initiation, Reed is relieved. She champions the new rules and the six new girls the administration has picked to live in Billings Hall: Constance, Missy, Lorna, Kiki, Astrid, and newcomer Sabine.

But Cheyenne Martin, Reed's fellow Billings resident and new nemesis, believes that the changes are a mockery of Billings history. Despite the new rules, Cheyenne vows to keep the old ways alive, no matter what—or who—stands in her way.
