Peter Miles Has to Die

Peter Miles has to die. And Dylan Darcy, Priya Shah, and Isabel Guerrero—a bartender, a nurse, and a student—have to be the ones to kill him. As they see it, this local cop deserves death for murdering their best friend and getting away with it. All they need to do to pull off the perfect crime is stick to their carefully prepared plan. So that’s exactly what they do. Murder, it turns out, is surprisingly easy when you’re fueled by revenge.

What comes after is the hard part. As the dry Texas heat gives way to cooler weather, their blazing rage is replaced by a chill fear. Because there’s a fallout that comes from settling the score against someone like Peter. As the guilt of what they’ve done settles in their bones, they realize there's no going back. Someone is going to have to take the fall.
