Gabriela Alma has an impossible dream-one she barely dares to speak aloud. How can a girl growing up between hipsters and gangsters ever become a doctor? Torn between survival and ambition, she trains in both fighting and healing, determined to carve out her own destiny.
When a community center counselor offers her the chance to travel to Colombia and learn traditional healing, Gabriela takes the risk. She falls in love with Cartagena's beauty, its ancient Castle, and the wisdom hidden in its rainforests. But the dream she has chased comes at a cost.
Young girls are disappearing. And now, Gabriela is next.
Caught in a web of danger, her survival hangs by a thread. With everything at stake-her future, her dreams, and her life-Gabriela must make an impossible choice.
A gripping coming-of-age adventure filled with resilience, courage, and the fight for survival. Perfect for fans of inspirational young adult fiction, strong female protagonists, and character-driven thrillers.
