High school science geek Jill Jekel is enamored of her handsome, moody classmate Tristen Hyde; she's thrilled when he agrees to partner up for a science contest. However, their project results in the exposure of devastating secrets stemming from their families' shared lurid history. The contemporary-set tale, told from Jill and Tristen's alternating perspectives, is an effectively eerie, romantic horror story.
