Athena Liu is a literary darling.
Juniper Hayward is literally nobody.
White lies
When Athena dies in a freak accident, Juniper steals her unpublished manuscript and publishes it as her own under the ambiguous name June Song.
Dark humour
But as evidence threatens Juniper's stolen success, she will discover exactly how far she will go to keep what she thinks she deserves.
Deadly consequences...
What happens next is entirely everyone else's fault.
