==Synopsis==
The series follows Zoey, a seemingly normal young woman that has the desire to kill the people around her and to become a serial killer. Her first and so far only victim was Annabelle Turner, a teenage schoolgirl that was having a secret sexual relationship with Zoey's best friend Seven. Annabelle seduced Seven into thinking that she really cared about her before outing Seven to the school and her parents, who disowned her. Seven attempted to commit suicide but was unsuccessful. She then moved in with Zoey's family, who ended up legally adopting her. Zoey stalked and murdered Annabelle, telling the teen that she was killing Annabelle because of her treatment towards Seven. Annabelle apologized for her actions before dying, which prompted conflicted emotions in Zoey. As she does not want to commit more murders, Zoey has vowed to avoid killing anyone- a feat made more difficult because she genuinely enjoys the process. Zoey records all of this via journals that she burns as soon as she fills them up completely.
Things become more difficult after Zoey begins attending Blair College in California, where she has to deal with her fellow college students, roommates, and the college town's history of murder. She takes on the responsibilities of becoming a disc jockey and talk show host for Blair's college radio station, something that she was initially hesitant about. On her first show Zoey takes random calls, one of which is from a girl named "Heather", who confesses that she is thinking about committing suicide due to actions she committed that led to the attempted suicide of her classmate Trinna, an outcast. Heather had persuaded Trinna into attending a drinking party in a hotel room, where Trinna was pressured into drinking until she passed out, at which point Heather and her friends took pictures of Trinna's naked body and sent them to various people in the school. The confession disgusts Zoey, as it reminds her of how Seven was treated and because Heather tries to justify her actions by saying that Trinna didn't really have to drink the beers they offered her. While she is talking with Heather, Zoey gets her uncle and crime scene investigator Zeke to trace the call and try to prevent the suicide. During her conversation with Heather Zoey realizes that Heather learned her behavior from the people around her, which prompts Heather to admit that she had been raped by a client her father was trying to sign to a record deal. The confession gives Zeke the information they need to find Heather's true identity, but results in Heather shooting her parents dead. The deaths shake Zoey to her core, as her inner killer (who she is occasionally seen conversing with in a mirror) later taunts her with the knowledge that she enjoyed overhearing the deaths. During all of this an unnamed serial killer is murdering beautiful, wealthy young women and leaving behind Polaroids with their dead bodies.
As a result of the deaths Zoey must keep her radio identity secret and she manages to convince her roommates to keep her secret. During all of this Zoey tries to stick to her vow of not killing anyone, a vow that she eventually ends up breaking after she attends a sorority party with her roommate Ash, as their fellow roommate Krista begged them to go. While there Zoey is nearly raped by Brock, the boyfriend of Mandy, a snobby sorority girl. This near-rape, along with the knowledge that Mandy's actions with Krista resulted in Krista being orally raped by a male classmate, pushes Zoey into committing murder yet again. As Zoey has experience in crime scene investigation due to her relationship with her uncle Zeke, she manages to murder Mandy and Brock without any problems. However her actions were not completely unseen, as she soon discovers that the town's active serial killer saw her actions and has expressed his or her admiration in the form of a message to Zoey by way of a Polaroid of the deceased Mandy.
