The town of Ana has its share of problems, and not everyone is so eager to see its rapid change. Crime, suspicious cops, and the painful history of what happened in this town all stand in Raya’s way. She’s used to counting on her twin brother Luther, best friend Aurora, and close friend Dorian, but when revealed secrets come between them, it seems like everything’s falling apart.
But Raya has a personal reason for wanting to make a difference in Ana. And when it comes to this destiny, she won’t back down.
