One day in December, a mysterious hacker uploads 119 private files stolen from Clearwater's teachers. Suddenly the private medical records, email exchanges, tax returns, Tinder profiles, Netflix preferences, Craigslist ads, direct messages, and GPS movements of 41 educators are a curious click away, and the rest of the faculty dwells in fear of another leak.

The Math teacher who made a sex tape. The French teacher outed as a transgender woman. The English teacher concealing a hidden punk rock past. The principal racing to save his school from collapse.
