What if living your most authentic life leaves you dead?
Frances Bean was always content living life on the perimeter. Until she is paired up for a class project with rich and popular Julia, daughter of famous wellness guru Deena Patterson. The "magic" skincare products, healing sound baths, and extravagant parties of Deena’s company DEEP never really interested Frances before, who wears the badge of goth outcast and bookworm proudly. But face time with the girl she has been crushing on for years is starting to give her a new outlook.
When Frances gets an exclusive invite to Femme, the young ambassadors of DEEP program, she is blown away by the beauty and luxury of Julia’s world and Femme's focus on empowering girls to be their most true selves surprisingly strikes a chord. Before long Frances finds herself invested in Femme, a whirlwind romance with Julia, and a future that feels hopeful.
But when an infamous DEEP party takes a dark turn, Frances wonders if the allure of being a part of Julia’s life was actually just a deadly distraction…
