About the story

Two students from Brookwood High School mysteriously go missing on the same night.

The first is Peter Moon, a heartless pescatarian who bashes students from Brookwood on his blog. The second is the adored Kat Pike, an audacious girl desperate to boost her adrenaline.

Three days pass. No leads.

Sixteen-year-old Jackie Mendoza couldn’t care less about two classmates going missing—until a menacing app called Capsule downloads itself onto her phone. Now she’s trapped in a game interlaced with reality, one that threatens to erase Peter and Kat forever.

Only Jackie can save them now, but Capsule is the most ruthless game she’s ever played.
