Every high school has football games, lies, crushes, secrets, dances, and murder. Right?

Months have passed since darkness invaded Vale, Louisiana, when a young girl, Leigh Thompson, disappeared. A group of teenagers tries to hide their secrets after they receive a letter threatening to expose them if they don't tell the truth.

Things take a turn for the worse when Peyton Vale arrives in town, determined to walk each of them to the gallows for what they did to Leigh. But coming face to face with her foe, Dark Horse, she learns striking a deal with the devil is easier said than done.

The closer Dark Horse gets to discovering the truth, the more Peyton Vale conceals her own secret-and the harder it gets for the group of teens to keep theirs dead and buried.

Who is Dark Horse, and what is he after? Will Peyton Vale get her revenge?

And who are the teens more afraid of: Dark Horse, Peyton, or each other?
