After weeks of reading copious news articles, we still don’t know if Caresha and Diddy are dating. Why is it so difficult to harvest “the news” from The News nowadays? Also, when did our news sources get so sensational? These ponderings lead us to this week’s theme: How to Avoid Misleading Information in the News and Social Media. Alexis walks us through how to avoid information that’s sponsored and biased. Then, on to our book.

Cate’s quiet English neighborhood has experienced several sexual assaults, and one beautiful young girl is missing. Across from Cate’s family’s home, police arrest a man. He’s in his thirties, a loner no one has ever seen with a girlfriend. The man is said to have recently lost his job due to sexual misconduct. Cate sighs with relief now that the local creep is off the streets. But when the attacks continue, and clues lead to her bedroom door, she must confront her prejudices and blind spots to reveal a shocking truth.
