In a near-future Australia, the death penalty is reinstated. The catch: the family of the victim must carry out the sentence. One family member gets twenty-four hours in a room with the condemned. No cameras. No microphones. They can dole out whatever punishment they decide. The only rule: at the end of the twenty-four hours, the criminal must be dead. When ten-year-old Lucy is murdered, her family is doubled over with grief. While her killer waits them to decide on his fate, psychologist Octavia Tate is assigned to guide the family through their decision.

And while Grace can mourn publicly, Stella has to hide her feelings to stop people from finding out about her and Isaac being more than friends. But how long can Stella keep lying – to herself and everyone else? And when the truth finally comes out, how will it affect her newfound friendship with Grace?

Benedict Hargreaves (the 4th) is Douglas College's wealthiest student and perhaps the only one who isn't influenced by the school and its strict code of conduct. Is he brave enough to help Meg uncover what has happened to her sister?
