Description

In the perpetual frost of Mt. Tybun, a frozen tundra neighborhood where the wind never stops howling and the snow never fully melts, 16-year-old Preston arrives as the new kid with nothing but a hidden smile and a stubborn streak to keep him warm. The place is a cluster of icy battered houses and ice-crusted streets where kids learn early that weakness is an open invitation. Almost immediately, Preston becomes the favorite target of a gang of misfit teens who rule the block with sharp tongues, harder fists, and a restless hunger for power.

That hunger has a name: The Stinger.

Rumors swirl around the infamous water gun with that exact name like blizzard snow. In any ordinary town it would be a toy. In Mt. Tybun it is something closer to a weapon…and Preston doesn’t just feel he wants one, he feels he needs one.
