The slightly larger detail is the fact that her gentle, poet-father has been charged with murder. All Sophie wants is to be adoredand invincible, which is really hard once people find out her father's in prison. But this time, after yet another move to another new school, and another opportunity to wipe the slate clean, Sophie has devised a plan. On her first day of school, she will locate The Blondes—that clique of perfect, confident girls who are beyond gossip and reproach—and she will make them her friends. This time, no one will find out the truth.This time, everything will be brilliant.
