What to expect
Nobody believes her.
Twelve-year-old Abani Singh claims to have witnessed a self-driving car murder a man and drive away with no one inside. Even private detective Mark St. Johns, grandson of the famous Los Angeles sleuth “The Falcon,” believes that the distressed girl made a mistake or fabricated the story. Her claim, that the car hit the man, backed up, struck him again and drove off on a major highway, seems impossible.
But when killers target Abani, Mark discovers a threat of impossible power—one that can hide, lie, steal, and kill more destructively than any criminal he’s ever faced.
