Kit Marquez represents one side of the coin. Heads. She's a heart attack with poisonous smiles and eyes like melted chocolate, captivating and deadly. She's also angry. Angry at the world, angry at the people in her life, angry with everyone except Theodora Montoya. Theo Montoya represents the other side of the coin. Tails. She's a quiet disaster, a thrill seeker who attends church every Sunday morning to apologise for sneaking out every night. She's a fierce catastrophe that mourns the wreckage she makes -- but if there's one thing she's determined not to mess up, it's Catherine Marquez.

Even in death, the dead speak. ✘ ✘ ✘ An investigation is set off by a pair of sleuths after a recording arrives in their laps from the victim himself, detailing how he set off the very murder that killed him...

impossible heists, lawless youths, and centuries-old paintings that hold immeasurable power. ✧ cover art by Louise Delfin
