- In the beggining of the book Davy, the main character, tests positive for having HTS, the kill gene, also known as "Homicidal Tendency Syndrome". Davy is rejected by her friends and her boyfriend too.
- Because Davy have HTS, she's forced to leave her normal, regular school and she's also forced to join a new school... a school where are a lot of HTS carriers, there's where she meets Gil (her future bestfriend) and Sean (her future boyfriend).
- Davy discovers that one of her classmates, Coco, is being "abused" by one of the teachers... even if that's not correct, Coco feels like that's the only way she can actually survive in that school because her classmates are really mean sometimes... so she ends up accepting it and doind sexual favours voluntarily.
- Everyone knows that Davy has the "kill gene" and everyone have been ignoring her, but, even knowing that Dany goes to a party with her boyfriend Zac. In that party her bestfriend tells her to leave and Zac tries to make Davy feel really bad for not having sex with him, because of that, Davy leaves the party and breaks up with Zac slapping him for trying to take advantage of her. She refuses to go home with Zac and calls Sean to pick her up instead.
- Since Davy has the kill gene she can't attack anyone, and since she slapped Zac he's convinced to press charges against her, so she's taken away and she gets a H imprinted on her neck (the same H Sean has).
- Davy's teacher, the same guy who is taking advantage of Coco, tries to make a move on Davy, but Sean shows up and stops the teacher from doing anything,
- Schools close because of some carriers, they pull off a shooting what causes a massive panic across the country. Because of that all of the HTS carriers are moved to some kind of detention camps. Some carriers are able to go to Mount Haven, that's a local that takes in the most important and intelligent carriers, Davy, Sean and Gil get in.
- Davy doesn't feel really well at Mount Haven, everyone seems to be really intelligent or even specialised in something and she feels she is the weakest of them all, so the chooses to train her physical strength.
- Davy is always in trouble with Jackson because he's always teasing her, and because of that Sean tries to protect her a lot of times.
- Mount Haven teenagers split into teams and take part in a kind of "hunt", Davy's team wins and restrains Jackson's team. Jackson attacks Davy because he hates to lose and that's the moment when Sean steps in, they are both restrained and because of that one of the soliders tells Davy that she has to shoot Jackson or he'll shoot Sean killing him... Davy doesn't want to kill anyone but she doesn't want to lose Sean too... so she shoots Jackson and kills him.
- Sean, Davy and Gil try to escape from Mount Haven with some help, and they succeed. They want to cross the Mexican/Texan border without getting shot since now the policy is to shoot everyone on sight.
