Zoanna 'Zoe' Reynolds is no ordinary teenager. Lives in a mansion, owns eight different cars for all weathers, has admirers from every corner, and gets invitations to parties every night. With her exotic looks and a billion dollars conglomerate waiting for her, the world practically worships Zoe. But there are a couple of teeny tiny problems. She lives in the confinement of the four walls of her room when she owns estates all over the continents. Rarely touches the cars even when she has Mercedes and Lamborghinis cramped in the garage. For her, admirers come and go. As for the invitations, they go straight to the trash can. Why? She's seen her parents die before her eyes. She's received the body parts of her eight years old sister as Christmas presents. She was kidnapped on multiple occasions and stood face to face with death twice. With a life as messed up as her's she labels herself as one of the most 'damaged' teenager in the world. Until she gets to know the dark haired eye candy who used to be her childhood crush. Until history starts repeating and the real destruction begins. Until all she can think was how peaceful her life had been.

That's when they meet six boys whose interrogations force Nolan to face the fact that this case is very different from the usual murder cases. But the most important question... Who killed Andy Hansen?

[DROPPED: currently picking up my motivation and starting a new one] "Everyone is born single. Kaya naman yung mga sikat na acronym na NBSB, NGSB, malamang sa malamang ay totoo. Wala naman sigurong tao na pinanganak na may karelasyon na, kahit pa nga ang arrange marriage eh hindi natutuloy kase maaaring hindi nila gusto ang isa't-isa." Single had no qualms being a single. She literally is not interested in engaging in any kind of romantic episode. Anong pake niya sa relationship na yan, hindi naman nagiging monetary ang investment doon. Sayang pa sa oras at ATP.
