Nel giro di un anno la vita di Annabel è completamente cambiata: da quando è stata scoperta a una festa con il fidanzato di Sophie, la sua migliore amica, tutti la evitano. L'anno scolastico inizia per lei nel peggiore dei modi. E la situazione a casa non contribuisce affatto ad aiutarla, infatti la sua famiglia un tempo solida, sembra essere adesso, priva di equilibrio e instabile. Che cosa è successo tra le sue due sorelle maggiori? Perché tra di loro c'è un palpabile risentimento e dei silenzi glaciali? E perché nessuno ha il coraggio di parlare dell'anoressia di Witney o della depressione della madre? Annabel trova conforto in una strana amicizia con il ragazzo più solitario della scuola, Owen. Anche lui è arrabbiato col mondo, ma ha imparato a controllare i suoi sentimenti e cerca di insegnare a Annabel a fare lo stesso. Forse, con il suo aiuto, troverà il coraggio di affrontare quello che le è successo un anno prima, alla festa. Quando nella sua vita tutto è improvvisamente crollato...
