When a Black teen decides to run for prom queen at her predominantly white high school, the competition takes a deadly turn when the candidates start going missing and the fight for the crown becomes a matter of life or death. A gripping YA thriller for readers of Jumata Emill's The Black Queen and Tiffany D. Jackson's The Weight of Blood.
Ida and JJ were the ultimate power couple of Banneker High. As the VP and President of their Black Student Union, the two seemed destined to be yearbook legends. But that was before an ugly break up. JJ is already deep in a new relationship, which infuriates Ida—almost as much as when a sexist "hot list' starts circulating the school. It's bad enough anyone rated the girls on their looks, but the list has only white students. Seriously?
There has never been any racial diversity among the prom queen candidates at Banneker, so the BSU decides to make their own statement on beauty and run a candidate—and Ida and JJ's new girlfriend will each compete for the crown. Except the candidates start getting picked off one by one, and Ida is sure she's being stalked. Forget winning a tiara, who will live to see prom?
