Would Tinsley do anything for the crown? Nova's best friend Duchess certainly thinks so. So when Tinsley asks Duchess for help to clear her name, she agrees. She's determined to get justice for Nova, even it means befriending a murderer to find proof against her. But their investigation begins to uncover secrets about Nova's past and one big secret that could change everything in their small town.
