Being two years younger at sixteen and already smarter than most in the party college, TPU (or better known as TPEWWWW) life was never going to be easy. Monica Morell, Jennifer and Gina, or better known as the Monikettes beat her up and make her life hell. Monica is the most popular girl in the college and she has connections.

After a violent confrontation Claire is threatened that she will "get what's coming to her" by Monica. She begins to really believe that they are attempting to kill her and that if she stays in the dorm they will. When Claire heads off-campus however, the imposing old house where she finds a room may not be that much better. Her new roommates, Eve, Shane and Michael all have their secrets, but the biggest secret of all isn't really a secret at all - well, only to Claire. But Claire and her new friends come out fighting when the town's deepest secrets come crawling out, hungry for fresh blood.
