Herrara Okafor is seventeen, quietly falling apart, and the only person in her town who knows the truth before anyone else does. She's always had the visions - flashes of the past, the present, sometimes the future, tangled together with no warning and no way to tell them apart. She's spent her whole life keeping them secret. Then she sees her father's death, months before the diagnosis that confirms it's coming. And she sees a boy from her college, taken from a car park in the dark - except by the time she understands what she's watching, he's already gone. As more students disappear, Herrara is the only one who knows the disappearances are connected - and the only one who can't explain how she knows. Torn between a dying father, a mother barely holding on, and a boy who might be the one thing keeping the answers just out of reach, Herrara has to decide how much of herself she's willing to risk to save people who don't even know she's trying. But some things, she's about to learn, can't be solved, warned away, or seen coming in time. Some things you just have to survive. -- Cover image is from Pinterest @/anncharmaineobe
