Nine years ago, with the world's eyes on her, Charlie Colbert fled. The press and the police called Charlie a 'witness' to the shocking events at her elite graduate school on Christmas Eve - events known to the public as 'Scarlet Christmas' - though Charlie knows she was much more than that. Now,

she's worked for, Charlie realises how much she's changed in nine years. Now, she's not going to let anything - not even the people she once loved most - get in her way.
