      Learning to cope with bullies is an unfortunate part of life, a hurdle to overcome. But for too many, being bullied is traumatic, having lifelong consequences. Who can say that being the target of bullying won't affect every decision they will make in their lifetime?...or the decisions of their children?...or those of their children's children? Memphis Police Lt. Julia Todd learns that three of her elderly aunt's high school classmates have died in their hospital beds within the past six months. Her investigation takes her to Central H.S., class of 1948, where she discovers a clique who bullied students they considered to be different. Now sixty years later the dead bodies of these bullies are piling up. Todd and her team scramble to prevent a fourth murder, then a fifth.

Using one Iraq War demolitions specialist to catch another, more bombs are found and diffused. The bombers up the ante - pledging a suicide pact and adding police to the target list. Julia is number one.
