Plot Synopsis

Taylor Hillridge is a pretty 17-year-old student dealing with her parents' recent divorce and painfully aware of her lower social status in high school. When her mom gives her a computer for her birthday, she is excited by the prospect of going online to meet new friends without her mother always looking over her shoulder. However she soon finds herself the victim of betrayal and bullying while visiting a popular social website. Obsessed with the damaging posts, she begins to withdraw from her family and friends, including her life-long best friend, Samantha Caldone. Tormented and afraid to face her peers at school, Taylor is pushed to a breaking point. It is only after this life-changing event that she learns that she is not alone, meeting other teens who have had similar experiences. Taylor's mom takes on the school system and state legislation to help prevent others from going through the same harrowing ordeal as her daughter.
