One Secret to Keep
The city's biggest gala jeopardizes their darkest secrets.

SAGE sold her decisions to a wealthy corporation called the Board. Now, strangers anonymously vote on her life decisions, forcing her to entertain. She's ordered to rob a bank, flash a bartender, and spy on a new friend. It's a secret she'll never tell. But when she receives a cryptic note from a blackmailer, she has until gala night to figure out the blackmailer's identity before they expose her.



CALA is an heiress to a demanding stepfather. Wanting independence, she's willing to apply for jobs she feels are low-class. Without a job, her self-esteem tumbles into oblivion and to cope, she parties and meets strange men. Then, desperate for money, she breaks into her stepfather's work office, and stumbles upon a secret she's determined to uncover.



JACKIE watches her best friends Sage and Cala struggle. The only one with a steady income, she works fifty hours a week at a local bank and still has to borrow money for tampons. During one of her many late-night shifts, an affluent customer withdraws a large sum of money, and she gets a sinister idea. Knowing her bank's security perfectly, she steals money, believing she alone can alter her and her friends' lives. But after her boss discovers the discrepancies, she's forced to figure out how to save herself while preserving her friends.
