QUINN VASQUEZ and CASSANDRA DIAZ are both fictional characters in the Author's Metropolis. Despite their shared state, they are nothing alike. While Cassandra is notorious for violence and murder, Quinn just wants a normal life at St. John's Academy. After the trouble she faced being Cassandra's look-alike, Quinn cuts her hair and embraces her new appearance. However, the line between them blurs even more after Cassandra kills someone at a party filled with Quinn's schoolmates.
While her friends at St. John's are determined to solve the mysterious tragedy, Quinn is pulled into a silent battle against her evil twin. Cassandra is trying to reclaim her spot in the story, a position that Quinn currently holds. Because she was scrapped and forgotten, her anger and frustration culminate into one grand plan: to destroy the Author's precious work, to erase the Metropolis forever. Quinn then asks herself: Can Cassandra really do that?
But as their origins slowly come to light, Cassandra gains the upper hand. Quinn's determined to keep the Metropolis alive, no matter what it takes.
