The Taste of Kiwi

Have you ever tasted a kiwi? Green kiwi? Gold kiwi?

How about lies? Untruth? Deception?

For Kiwi Bonifacio, the sweet, tart, and refreshing taste of kiwi fruit is far from his reality. Instead, untruths hit his tongue with the bland, greasy sensation of day-old soggy frozen french fries. He's never sure if this absurd lie-detecting ability is a gift or an undiscovered magical-scientific thing.

Life as an overlooked middle child and a normal student is already complicated. But then, his childhood best friend transfers to his school, bringing familiar comfort and a sudden wave of gender confusion.

As Kiwi navigates his rekindled feelings, a darker reality emerges: a serial killer is hiding in the school. To uncover the truth and protect those he cares about, Kiwi must finally embrace his bitter gift before he, or someone he loves, becomes the next victim.
