1998. Summer is coming, school is almost out, and Deeks Bogart just wants to make it through one more year in his tiny Southern town. Being one of the only Black students is hard enough?being secretly gay is even harder. But when local teens start dying in brutal, supernatural ways, Deeks realizes he's not the only one hiding dangerous secrets.

Whispers of Bloody Mary stalk the halls and mirrors of O'Khata Lake High. Victims share one thing in common: they were all living the same lie that Deeks is. Now, the ghost is haunting the closeted kids of O'Khata Lake, and Deeks may be next.

With his goth best friend, Sheena, his cousin Riri, and an unlikely ally he can't help but fall for, Deeks must uncover the truth behind Bloody Mary before the killer in the mirror claims him too.

But surviving the curse will mean confronting the one thing that terrifies him most?himself.
