Each blackmailer seemed to know their most damaging secrets, using that knowledge to control and torment them. Now the girls believe they're close to getting the answers they've desperately needed. They're ready to close this dark period of their lives forever and move forward. But their relief may be premature. The truth they uncover brings new shocks and unexpected turns that threaten to unravel everything they thought they knew.
