More about this book

The Story

Astrid Sullivan has spent years watching the mechanical Titans race from behind the fence in her Detroit neighborhood. She’s fascinated by their engineering and speed, but she also resents what the races have cost her family and community.

When financial pressure, gambling fallout, and the threat of losing her home close in, Astrid is offered an unexpected chance to ride an early-model Titan. She teams up with a gruff mentor, leans on her best friend, and enters a dangerous competition where rich rivals and costly equipment dominate the field.

As Astrid trains and races, she has to learn trust, courage, and how far loyalty can go under pressure. The story centers on her bond with the Titan, her friendships, and the fight to win enough money to protect the people she loves.
