When government auditor Lila Reyes arrives in Echo Town, she finds a place that isn’t on any map and shouldn’t exist. The streets are too perfect, the residents too polite, and the bells that ring through the town stop everyone in their tracks. There’s no phone signal, no internet, and no way to call for help. Every movement is watched, every smile feels rehearsed, and every answer sounds memorized. As Lila uncovers the truth behind the town’s creation, she realizes she may not be allowed to leave.
