If death didn't stop her, then neither would her family. At last, Bea was free of all of the curses keeping her silent and still. With nothing left to keep her in her mother's basement, she escapes to the west coast to resume the life she'd made for herself so long ago, away from her family and their demands to satisfy their expectations. It's almost like the last year never happened. Almost. But Apex is still watching her every move. When Red and Gigi track her down, she enlists them both as bodyguards to keep the organization from getting too close. But Apex just won't let her go and Bea isn't sure if it's worth running from them any longer.
