A year after her sister Claire was killed in a Halloween corn maze, Alice Lawrence is the only witness—and the girl no one believes. Her parents have split, she’s stuck in an apartment that smells like bologna, and today she has to face a courtroom that doubts her and a killer who doesn’t.
Claire was the golden one: theater star, sunshine smile. Alice is the horror-movie nerd who wants to be a forensic pathologist. Different as they were, they were inseparable—until Claire was taken.
Minutes before Alice’s testimony, a final-girl lookalike jumps her in the courthouse bathroom. She comes to on Halloween night, one year earlier—the day Claire dies. Now Alice has until midnight to change the story: save her sister, unmask the real killer, and make someone finally believe what she saw in the maze.
