The Last Laugh

Tress Montor has killed Felicity Turnado, but her guilt might not last long. With an infected arm barely held together by duct tape, a panther on the loose, and the whole town searching for the missing homecoming queen, Tress’s odds of survival are slim. As delirium sets in, she's haunted by the relentless sound of Felicity’s heartbeat coming from the “best friend” charm around her neck.

Meanwhile, Ribbit Usher, long the town's laughingstock, sees this as his moment to rise. Humiliated by a viral video, he’s determined to fulfill his destiny—saving Felicity, who he believes belongs by his side, and exacting revenge on those who’ve wronged him, including his cousin, Tress. Bound by a pact he made with his mother, Ribbit has just four days to carry out his plan.

With time running out and an enemy she once called a friend lurking nearby, Tress’s grip on reality weakens. Can she hold herself together long enough to uncover the truth about her parents’ disappearance?
