In this prequel to the bestselling phenomenon of TikTok fame, They Both Die at the End , two new strangers spend a life-changing day together after Death-Cast make their first fateful calls. Told with acclaimed author Adam Silvera’s signature bittersweet touch, this story celebrates the lasting impact that people have on each other and proves that life is always worth living to the fullest.

Orion Pagan has waited years for someone to tell him that he’s going to die, given his serious heart condition. Valentino Prince has a long and promising future ahead of him and only registered for Death-Cast after his twin sister nearly died in a car accident.
