Fifteen-year-old Fanny Berk just wants to disappear. After a violent attack on her family, she retreats into silence, shadow, and karate—her armor against a world she no longer trusts. She trains relentlessly, stays under the radar, and keeps everyone out.
But when Fanny intervenes to stop a brutal act of bullying, everything changes.
That single moment of heroism draws her into a dangerous criminal underworld—where justice is risky, truth is slippery, and survival isn’t guaranteed.
