Logline: When softball prodigy Callie is recruited for the top university team in the nation, she expects fierce competition—but not the horrors, scandals, and secrets lurking behind closed doors. As tensions escalate to a violent murder, every girl on the team—including Callie—becomes a suspect in a deadly game that’s far more dangerous than softball.
