When Gen Farías’s brother, Mati, is convicted of a tragic crime, everything changes. Gen’s neighbors look at him and his family with suspicion, his parents barely speak to each other, and no one wants to tell Gen what’s happening. But the worst part is that it’s all Gen’s fault. Mati had asked Gen to leave their bedroom window open for him, but Gen fell asleep. Now, guilt haunts him—guilt, and a terrifying shadow that crouches each night on the tree branch outside his window, watching him with penetrating eyes.
Gen’s parents decide to pack up their lives and move to Los Astros—a beautiful village nestled in the mountains that Gen’s mom used to visit as a child—to try to regain some sense of normalcy. But Los Astros, Gen soon discovers, is no ordinary town. There are creepy wicker figures on every lawn, and strange stories of children who go missing every year. Beneath its idyllic façade, Los Astros has a secret—one Gen must uncover if he doesn’t want to go missing himself.
