Her new coat, befitting her unique style, was white and light blue brocade with old-fashioned cut-glass buttons. I’m glad my coat arrived on Saturday, Sabine DuLac said.
At times like this I could easily imagine what she had looked like as a child.
Constance cuddled her chubby, freckled cheeks into her collar and stared at the cobblestone path to the dining hall. Had to love that temperamental New England weather. Saturday it had been seventy-five degrees. The cold September sky above was gray, muddled, threatening rain as we crossed the quad at the center of the Easton Academy campus, together with our Billings housemates. You ruined my life.Ĭrummy day, Constance Talbot said, hugging her tweed coat closer to herself as the wind whipped her red hair back from her face. Cheyenne had said as much in the e-mail she’d sent me the night she died. So why couldn’t I help thinking that if I had never come to Easton Academy, they would both still be alive? Walking around this campus right now.
Cheyenne had died because she was disturbed. Thomas had died because Ariana was psychotic. The only two people I had ever known who had died had died young. History has a way of repeating itself at Easton, and now that Reed has everything she's ever wanted, she has everything to lose. She revels in her newfound status, but knows better than anyone that the Bilings leaders have a tainted legacy: Ariana was institutionalized, Noelle was expelled, and Cheyenne just died. Reed is the most powerful girl at Easton. So when Easton's students discover they're the only prep school on the East Coast not invited to this year's all-inclusive Legacy party, everyone turns to Reed to get them back on the list. Gossip is reported to her immediately, she has first dibs on everything from dining tables to dorm rooms, and Billings's most powerful alumnae are at her beck and call. And who better than Reed Brennan, the ultimate Billings Girls?Īs the new Billings president, Reed suddenly has access to power she never imagined. With Cheyenne gone, they need to elect a new leader.
After Cheyenne Martin's death, everyone at Easton Academy is struggling to recover from yet another tragedy-especially the girls of Billings Hall.
