Of course her brother had to throw one of his parties, and of course Catia had to crash it. How else was she supposed to make new friends when leaving all her old ones behind in California for the foreseeable future, all because their dad had his hands full with taking over running things for his business partner.

The mugger had caught her by surprise, grabbing Catia from behind and shoving her hard against the wall to stun her. Whether they had intended for her to trip, fall and gash her head open in the process, she had no idea, too dazed to really focus on anything, and it had happened too fast for her to catch a good look at the person who did it.
