My name is Valentina Vega.
Yesterday, everything was perfect. I was a senior in high school with the best boyfriend ever. Mateo and I even picked the same college—well, he picked it first, but I didn’t mind. Things with my best friend Laila haven’t been the same since I started dating him, but we had plans to catch a baseball game after school, so I thought we were good.
Yesterday, it really felt like life was finally falling into place.
Yesterday, I was alive.
Now I’m not—and I’m not resting in peace.
As soon as the tragic car accident took my life, Frida Kahlo—yes, that Frida Kahlo—showed up to walk me through the aftermath. Acting as a sort of mentor to the other side, Frida came not with a welcome, but a warning: I have three days to resolve my life, or I’ll be forever stuck at the scene of the accident, looking for answers.
But what seemed like an easy task—hey, my life was perfect, right?—becomes more complicated as I start to confront the doubts I’d been hiding from others and myself. As evidence builds of betrayal and backstabbing, so does a rage that threatens to consume not just the time I have remaining, but also my very identity. Will I discover the truth in time, or will I be condemned to haunt—and be haunted—for eternity?
