WARNING: Contains some spoilers! Emily is very shy and reserved. She has a hard time talking to people and prefers to keep to herself and stay home then to go out and party. She then meets Sloane. A wild child who loves to party and loves to be the centre of attention.

This is where the novel begins. A couple of weeks after Sloane disappears and Emily is officially bored out of her brain, a letter arrives. A list of things to do before the summer is over. A list from Sloane herself. Emily is set on completing the list as she thinks it will lead to Sloane's whereabouts.
