Everyone on campus has a different version of what happened that night.
Haley saw Jenny return from the party, shell-shocked.
Richard heard Jordan brag about the cute freshman he hooked up with.
When Jenny accuses Jordan of rape, Haley and Richard are pushed to opposite sides of the school’s investigation. Now conflicting versions of the story may make bringing the truth to light nearly impossible--especially when reputations, relationships, and whole futures are riding on the verdict.
Wrecked offers a kaleidoscopic account of a sexual assault on a college campus. It will leave you thinking about how memory, identity, and who sits in judgment shape what we all decide to believe about the truth.

From the Back Cover:
“Revelatory, deeply real, and urgently important.” —Nova Ren Suma, author of The Walls Around Us
Nothing is what it looks like. Or sounds like.
Jenny's so brave. This has been really hard for her. But she's doing the right thing.
For the record, I don't need to roofie some girl to get a little action. I'm not on any side. I don't want any part of it.
Jenny was OK. Now she's . . . wrecked.
