Noah Reyes, 18, has just cheated the inevitable.
During a sun-drenched trip to Byron Bay, Australia, Noah stumbles upon a relic hidden beneath the tides: a shimmering, ancient seashell. With a reckless, youthful whim, he makes a wish that echoes across the fabric of reality: to live until he is ninety.
He doesn't realize that some doors, once opened, can never be shut.
The following day, the sky turns to fire as his flight home disintegrates mid-air. Amidst the wreckage and the silence of the departed, Noah is the only one who walks away. But he wasn't meant to survive. Fate had already marked him for the crash, and by refusing to die, Noah has shattered the delicate architecture of the universe.
Now, there is a debt to be collected.
Death is no longer a distant certainty; it is a hunter, and it is methodical. As the shadows lengthen, Noah discovers a chilling truth: the universe demands balance. For every year he was never meant to have, someone he loves must answer for it.
Noah wanted to live forever. Now, he'll have to survive the cost.
