When three popular girls go on trial in Government class for their ruthless bullying of a girl named Ivy, it seems like the misfit will finally get her revenge. Eight first-person narrators give different versions of the event: Ivy—this victim doesn't want revenge, she just wants to be left alone; Ann—she's the beautiful, but infamously cruel, leader of the bullies; Marco—he may be the only person involved who has any morals, but he's also the target of Ann's persuasive affections; Daria—Ivy's painfully shy lawyer doesn't stand a chance; Bryce—the goofy court reporter knows all the real dirt, even if he doesn't care; Cameron—he sleeps through the proceedings but might wake up just in time to make a difference; Wayne—a true devotee of the legal process, too bad he's on the sidelines; and Faith—as the only witness for the prosecution, it all comes down to her. But where do her loyalties lie?
