When Najwa Bakri walks into her first Scrabble competition since her best friends death, its with the intention to heal and move on with her life. Perhaps it wasnt the best idea to choose the very same competition where said best friend, Trina Low, died. It seems that even though Najwa is trying to change, shes not ready to give up Trina just yet.
But the same cant be said for all the other competitors. With Trina, the Scrabble Queen herself, gone, the throne is empty, and her friends are eager to be the next reigning champion. Alls fair in love and Scrabble, but all bets are off when Trinas formerly inactive Instagram starts posting again, with cryptic messages suggesting that maybe Trinas death wasnt as straightforward as everyone thought. And maybe someone at the competition had something to do with it.
As secrets are revealed and the true colors of her friends are shown, its up to Najwa to find out whos behind these mysterious postsnot just to save Trinas memory, but to save herself.
