""Steal-your-breath adventure."" โMarissa Meyer, #1ย New York Timesย bestselling author of the Lunar Chronicles
Perfect for fans of Fable and House of Salt and Sorrows, this spectacular YA fantasy adventure is like nothing else, featuring a vividly imagined dystopian world, a magnetic second chance romance, and a thrilling heist where the reward is greatโbut the risks are even greater.
In the slowly sinking city of Coconino, Arizona, the days are long, the money is tight, and the rain never stops.
For Jin Haldar, this life is nothing newโever since her father died in a diving accident, sheโs barely made ends meet for her and her younger sister, Thara.
Enter Bhili: a drifter who offers Jin and Thara the score of a lifetimeโa massive stash of gold hidden in the sunken ruins of Las Vegas.
Jin knows itโs too dangerous. She stopped diving after her fatherโs accident. But when her sister decides to go, Jinโs left with only one choice: to go with her.
A ragtag crew is assembledโincluding Jinโs annoyingly hot ex-boyfriend. From there, a high-stakes heist ensues thatโs beyond even Jinโs wildest fears. Crumbling ruins, sea beasts, corsairs, and a mysterious figure named Joรฃo Silva all lie in wait. To survive, Jin will have to do what she promised herself sheโd never do again: dive.
