Jhonatan Black is a 16-year-old guy who always keeps to himself. He barely speaks and doesn't really connect with anyone, leading most people in town to think he's just an arrogant snob who feels superior to everyone else. The truth, however, is very different. Jhon has been carrying a heavy secret for as long as he can remember. Up until now, he always managed to run away—moving from place to place whenever things got dangerous—but this time, they finally found him. Deep down, he knows he can't run from his fate forever.

Around him are three other key figures:

Rose: An incredibly shy girl who always puts herself last just to help others. Her grandmother calls her "Angel" because of her natural instinct to take care of everyone around her.

Mr. Gherald: The local history teacher. A gloomy man marked by the mysterious disappearance of his wife years ago, a case in which he was the sole suspect. He lives in isolation, but neighbors swear they can hear him talking to himself inside his house... and that sometimes, a woman's voice answers him in the dark.

Mark: The newest guy in town, about whom nobody knows a thing. He stays quiet, but the way he observes people and pays attention to every single detail really rubs Jhon the wrong way.
