The Vibration Conspiracy: River Moss and the Speaking Cliff
River Moss is deaf, but they can "hear" something nobody else can—vibrations spelling out SOS through their vertical cliff city's infrastructure. Investigating these signals, River uncovers a terrifying conspiracy: their city's living, bio-engineered cliff is being harvested to create a compound that steals people's ability to speak. But when River triggers a counter-signal to stop the conspiracy, they discover the shocking truth: the conscious cliff has been trying to communicate all along, and the real conspiracy was keeping anyone from hearing it scream.
A thought-provoking sci-fi thriller for ages 12-16 about a neurodivergent hero who discovers that their "disability" is actually the key to saving everyone—and that silence can be its own powerful language.
