Twenty years ago, eighteen-year-old Francis Quick was convicted of murdering her best friend, Cora King, and sentenced to death.

Now the highly debated Accelerated Death Penalty Act has passed giving Frankie thirty final days to live. Surprising everyone, one of the King family members sets out to challenge the woefully inadequate evidence and potential innocence of Frankie Quick.

The at-first reluctant but soon-fiery Nyla and her unexpected allyhandsome country island boy Sam Stackbring Frankies case to the international stage through her YouTube channel,Death Daze. They step into fame and a hometown battle that someones still willing to kill over. But who? The senator? The philanthropist? The pawn shop owner? Nylas own mother?

Best advice: Dont go to family dinner at the Kings estate. More people will leave in body bags than on their own two feet. And as for Frankie Quick, shes a gem . . . even if shes guilty.
