Run Before They See You

Marisol Reyes has lived her whole life in a company town. Same contractor, same water, same rules. When she finds her father's badge in a dead man's hand, she has eight hours before the company's private security finds her. No phone. No money. One ally. One file. As Marisol and Diego drive through the Sonoran desert toward the border, she reads what her father spent his life hiding — a weapons test that poisoned their town's wells for a decade, and her father's signature at the bottom of the schedule. Every adult on the road has a reason to hand her back. A relentless survival thriller about a girl running from the only home she's known, and the truth about it she can't unlearn.
