But when a masked intruder breaks in, seeking something—or someone—Gabriel's secret isn't the only one at risk. As danger looms, April and her friends must unravel a decades-old mystery to protect their newfound family. With their safety and unity on the line, can they outsmart the threats lurking in the shadows of their mansion? The stakes are high, and the clock is ticking in this thrilling adventure.
