When seventeen-year-old Briar Vincent's mental health takes a downward turn, her parents send her to spend the summer in New York City with her brother, Beau, who's made a name for himself as a popular drag queen.
All Briar wants is to read, breathe, and rest-none of which should involve Selene Brooks' shade-throwing drag king alter-ego Spencer Read. But when Selene puts down another up-and-coming drag king, Briar decides to enter Mr. Drag U.S.A against her.
There's just one flaw in her plan: Briar has never done drag before. Unless she can learn how to lip-sync and shake her anxiety, she doesn't stand a chance against Selene. But with the help of her brother and a few new friends-Briar is prepared to step into the shoes of Edgar Allan Foe, her drag king persona who is hellbent on taking Selene down.
