In defense, Thorn investigates contestants in the Nevada Bluff High Singing Star contest, while drama swirls around NBH-alum musician Philippe, the angel-wing-wearing Amerie, the Cotton Candy Cowgirls and the mysterious vigilante dude who disguises himself as “the Grin Reaper.” Thorn believably struggles with her judgmental father and community disapproval of her controversial identity (“As a rule, I don’t follow rules”). When a random lost locket weirdly leads Thorn to a half-buried baby-OMG! She’s suddenly under suspicion. Thorn survives by befriending Rune, the one other goth at their ultra-conservative high school.
Only trouble is, it’s in Nevada, years-of-enlightenment from home. Luckily, her minister mother finds a new gig. The goth-tastic Thorn, from Singleton’s The Seer series, is forced to move from California when her father loses his job.
