What do you do when you're accused of an unspeakable crime and know you're innocent, but the evidence against you is so compelling? After six years as a high school English teacher, Alexis Jordan thinks her biggest problems are a case of burnout and her suspicion that her husband is having an affair. Then things take a sudden, unexpected turn that threatens to end her marriage, wreck her career, and destroy her life when the student she's coaching for the school play makes a pass at her and she turns him down. Alexis doesn't realize that he is obsessed with her and has been building toward this moment for months. Nor that when he's rejected, he will set out to destroy her with his version of their "affair"-which is terrifyingly plausible.
