This was a debut that had me completely invested from beginning to end.

This elite private school setting was a perfect place for this thriller to unfold. Devon and Chiamaka are both seniors who are having a great start to their final year when they become targets for the anonymous Aces who has been divulging their secrets to everyone in school. They have no idea why they are being targeted and start working together to unveil this mystery.

Devon and Chiamaka are both compelling characters who you want to know more. Chiamaka with her drive for perfection make her persistence in uncovering who Aces is. Devon tends to underestimate himself at first but has so much growth throughout this novel. Beyond these characters themselves, the message behind this book made it an even more compelling read with its commentary on racism, homophobia, and economic disparity woven throughout. I am looking forward to more from this author in the future.
