Nikki
Kill does not see the world like everyone else. In her eyes, happiness
is pink, sadness is a mixture of brown and green, and lies are gray.
Thanks to a rare phenomenon called synesthesia, Nikki’s senses overlap,
in a way that both comforts and overwhelms her.
Always
an outsider, just one ‘D’ shy of flunking out, Nikki’s life is on the
fast track to nowhere until the night a mysterious call lights her phone
up bright orange—the color of emergencies. It’s the local hospital.
They need Nikki to identify a Jane Doe who is barely hanging on to life
after a horrible attack.
The
victim is Peyton Hollis, a popular girl from Nikki’s school who Nikki
hardly knows. One thing is clear: Someone wants Peyton dead. But why?
And why was Nikki’s cell the only number in Peyton’s phone?
As
she tries to decipher the strange kaleidoscope of clues, Nikki finds
herself thrust into the dark, glittering world of the ultra-rich Hollis
family, and drawn towards Peyton’s handsome, never-do-well older brother
Dru. While Nikki’s colors seem to help her unravel the puzzle, what she
can’t see is that she may be falling into a trap. The only truth she
can be sure of is that death is a deep, pulsing crimson.
