A series of seemingly random fires have been killing people for as long as most people can remember. When seventeen-year-old Cole Carter miraculously survives one of these fires, he resolves to find out what's causing them. Along the way, he gets pulled into something much bigger, and receives help from an unlikely source.

First, the adults vanish. No warning. No answers. One moment they were there, and the next the world was left to the children.
Ava Carter is sixteen, clinging to her little brother Eli and the promise she made to keep him safe. But survival is more than food and shelter. Strange symbols scar the streets. Shadows move where nothing should be. Her dreams bleed into waking life, filled with a mysterious man who speaks in riddles and visions that feel like warnings.
And always the same truth, whispered in the dark: when you turn eighteen, something comes.
Ava doesn't believe in destiny. But as her brother drifts closer to danger, and the cycle begins to tighten its grip, she must face a terrifying question-what if the answers she's searching for are worse than the silence?
