Fourteen-year-old Agnes has a rare way of seeing the world: she can read people through the letters in their names. Shapes, lines, angles-each one reveals something real, something hidden.
When she stumbles onto evidence of corruption and danger in her coastal town of Hull, her strange talent becomes more than a quiet skill. It becomes the only thing that might keep her alive.
To protect herself, Agnes slips into a new identity-Angel-and steps into a world where trust is risky, secrets run deep, and powerful people will do anything to stay in the shadows. With a small circle of allies who both challenge and steady her, she follows clues that pull her farther into a truth she can't unsee.
Every choice has weight.
Every secret has a cost.
And every letter might point to the person who will save her... or betray her.
A coming-of-age thriller of suspense, courage, and the power of understanding what's hidden in plain sight.
