'The cool group at school is not as luminous as it seems. Sure they appear to have it all, but there are problems lurking just below the surface.

'Beautiful Jordan is struggling to cope because of her newly divorced parents, Meredith covers her past by playing the clown, Cecilia hides her feelings and a shameful secret, Sam is growing up, and Jack is caught off -guard when he falls in love for the first time.

'And then there's someone else. She's not part of the group. The others have no idea she's there. But she knows that there are cracks. She watches them from the inside, out. From the outside, in.' (Libraries Australia)
