Danika Dizon is a natural problem solver. Thanks to her private investigator mom and mystery author dad, she's well equipped with the skills to offer guidance to anxious classmates who come to her for tarot readings between classes. For a price, of course.
But one of her clients isn't just worried about finals. Something or someone has her terrified. And when the girl vanishes after an ominous reading, her younger sister Gaby begs for Danika's help to find her. Danika takes the case to prove to her parents that she's an ace detective-and that her deck is never wrong. It says change is coming . . .
What starts off as a compelling challenge quickly devolves into a darker mystery. Turns out the missing girl was living a secret life. A life that somebody wants to keep buried. If Danika's not careful, the Death card that started it all might no longer be symbolic-it could be fate.
