The Thrashers

by Julie Soto

Zack was Jodi’s best friend. But she was only one of Zack’s many best friends.

Lucy always seemed pretty badass when she had a few drinks in her, but Jodi knew that the real reason she stole guys’ drinks was because she knew they wouldn’t be drugged.

In her mind, a flash of memory—a school bus rocking. The sweaty seat under her thighs. Pale blue irises pinning her against the window seat. “I’ll protect you.”

“Zackary Thrasher, you’re under arrest for the harassment and statutory rape of Emily Mills.”

Maybe it wasn’t being lonely she was afraid of. Maybe it was being alone.

If Emily’s journal was hidden in the bathroom wall … then what did the police have?

But you don’t have to like someone to be kind to them.
