By Jennifer Niven

At an elite New England boarding school, eight students are selected for an exclusive storytelling workshop with the one and only Meredith Graffam—an enigmatic writer, director, and actress.

Only one of the chosen will walk away with a life-changing opportunity to realize their creative dreams.

Graffam’s unorthodox methods push the students past the breaking point as they reveal their darkest secrets, take unthinkable risks, and slowly start to turn on one another. But Graffam never expected they would turn on her
