Family
Six years on from where the first chapter left off, Billie and Vega's world is unraveling. Their father has vanished, their mother is drained and distant, and Vega has spiraled off course. Billie aches for the unshakeable bond the sisters once shared—the force they proudly dubbed their superpower. So when Vega makes the decision to commit herself to a hospital, Billie refuses to stand by. Armed with nothing but her dad's vintage film camera, she sets out on a trek that will test her body and her heart. Strangers and circumstances along the way push her to her limits while quietly rebuilding her resilience. To make it through, she'll have to lean on her own instincts, think on her feet, and embrace whatever comes her way without warning.
