In the dusty streets of Sunvail, Arizona, secrets are as deadly as the desert sun. For Ava Garcia, a teenager with lightning speed, the truth is a dangerous currency. When her friend Miguel is found dead, the official story screams suicide—but Ava knows better. A killer is hunting the survivors of the mysterious April 12th incident, and Ava’s on the list.

As she races against time to unmask the murderer, Ava uncovers a web of lies tied to the town’s darkest day. With her allies dwindling and her father’s trust fraying, she must confront a ruthless assassin who thrives on chaos and a conspiracy that threatens to bury Sunvail in its own secrets. Can Ava outrun death itself, or will she become the next victim?
