The tapes document the ’13 reasons’ why Hannah decided to kill herself. Clay follows the story, wondering if – and if so, why – he is on the dead girl's list.

The 13-part series stars Dylan Minnette as Clay, and Aussie newcomer Katherine Langford as Hannah. Selena Gomez is exec producer, and Oscar winner Tom McCarthy directs the drama.
