Summary:
An unlikely friendship forms between Sean Randall and popular teen Deanna Roy. After writing a death threat online, Sean is falsely accused of plotting a Columbine-like massacre. The police raid his home and find rifles, shotguns, and a 'hit list' with twenty names of students who bullied Sean. As Sean faces imprisonment in a youth detention facility, he must overcome his dark image and prove his innocence to Deanna and his shaken community.
