Race to the Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse is a middle-grade fantasy novel that weaves together Navajo mythology, adventure, and the power of self-discovery. In this thrilling tale, seventh-grader Nizhoni Begay discovers an extraordinary ability: she can detect monsters. When a mysterious man named Mr. Charles takes an unsettling interest in Nizhoni and her brother Mac, their Navajo heritage, and the legend of the Hero Twins, Nizhoni’s instincts tell her he’s a threat.
But her father remains skeptical. When her father suddenly disappears, leaving behind a desperate message to “Run!”, Nizhoni, Mac, and their best friend Davery are going on a rescue mission. Guided by quirky characters who are Diné Holy People, they face a series of trials where nature itself seems to conspire against them.
