Ghost Teeth

Seventeen-year-old Birdie lives for danger— from rooftopping abandoned hotels to chasing the perfect shot for her Instagram alter ego, Bad Altitude. Her dying Florida beach town may be crumbling, but her follower count is rising fast. She’ s one viral post away from escaping the Space Coast for good. Then she meets Micah, a daredevil TikTok star with a taste for high-stakes stunts and even higher risks. At first, Birdie thinks she’ s found a kindred spirit. But Micah is secretly playing a deadly game online— and after he falls to his death, Birdie is left with more questions than answers. Determined to uncover the truth, she retraces his final stunts, getting dangerously close to his brother, Jayce. Can she trust him, or is he hiding something too? Now someone’ s watching Birdie— both online and off— and she’ s forced to keep playing. Because in this game, there’ s only one rule: if you quit, you die.
