Point-Blank Shot is about Jordan Cooper, a 17-year-old high school senior, who lives in Fargo, ND. Like all her friends, Jordan has grown up hearing about school shootings across the US, which leaves her fearing that someday she might be the next victim of one. When Jordan has to write an assignment about school shootings, things spiral downwards and she often surrenders to tears, nightmares, and despair. As Jordan struggles to complete her assignment, she suddenly comes face-to-face with what might turn out to be her hope in the middle of hopelessness; she develops an infatuation for a young, foreign boy.
