Die Gerüchte um die Neue lassen Olive zuerst völlig kalt. Aber als Miranda und die beliebte Katie das unzertrennlichste Paar der Schule werden, weckt das Olives Aufmerksamkeit. Die sonst so selbstbewusste Katie verblasst regelrecht neben der neuen Schülerin, lässt sich total vereinnahmen und beeinflussen. Olive kommt das sehr unheimlich vor, fast so, als hätte Miranda übernatürliche Kräfte und würde von Katies Wesen Besitz ergreifen. Doch wer glaubt ihr schon? Jeder denkt doch, dass sie unter Wahnvorstellungen leidet. Entweder ist Olive jetzt tatsächlich übergeschnappt oder dieses ganze Gerede über Miranda ist wahr. Vielleicht ist sie doch eine Mörderin?
