About the Book:
On a chilly November morning at the University of Georgia, a fraternity brother
steps off a busy crosswalk and is struck dead by an oncoming car. More than a
dozen witnesses all agree on two things: the driver looked identical to the
victim, and he was smiling.
Detective Marlitt Kaplan is first on the scene. An Athens native and the
daughter of a UGA professor, she knows all its shameful histories, from the
skull discovered under the foundations of Baldwin Hall to the hushed-up
murder-suicide in Waddel. But in the course of investigating this hit-and-run,
she will uncover more chilling secrets as she explores the sprawling,
interconnected Greek system that entertains and delights the university’s most
elite and connected students.
The lines between Marlitt’s police work and her own past increasingly blur as
Marlitt seeks to bring to justice an institution that took something precious
from her many years ago. When threats against her escalate, and some long-buried
secrets threaten to come to the surface, she can’t help questioning whether the
corruption in Athens has run off campus and into the force and how far these
brotherhoods will go to protect their own.
