13 year old Megan Meier had just started a new school after being bullied at her previous one. Missing her friends, she created a MySpace. Megan's parents took all the right precautions: only they had the password, they had to be in the room while Megan was signed on, and they had to approve all friend requests. But even with all their safety precautions, a boy named Josh Evans slid into Megan's DMs. Megan was in love with him and, as it turned out, was correct when she said that Josh was the kind of boy a girl would kill herself over. But who was Josh REALLY?
