Emma Carter is everything Rosenfeld High School pretends it doesn't tolerate.
She breaks rules, talks back, and knows exactly how far she can push before consequences hit. Popular, sharp-tongued, and unapologetically bold, Emma isn't a model student - but her grades are good enough to keep her untouchable. For now.
Everything changes the summer the principal resigns.
When school resumes, Rosenfeld is no longer the place Emma knows. The new principal, Evelyn Richter, arrives from Germany with a vision that shocks students, parents, and teachers alike. Cold, disciplined, and impossibly strict, Evelyn believes the school is broken - and she intends to rebuild it from the ground up.
Before the first day of class, every student receives a black box.
Inside:
A uniform.
And a decision already made.
Students are divided into three colors:
Blue - the elite. Perfect grades, perfect behavior, full privileges.
Green - capable, promising, but not good enough.
Red - problem students. Watched. Controlled. "Corrected."
Each color learns separately. Lives separately. Is treated separately.
Emma opens her box and finds red.
As the new system tightens its grip, Emma refuses to accept a label that defines her as broken.
And when she finally comes face to face with Evelyn Richter,
sparks fly off
Power, defiance, passion and control.
One is determined to impose order. The other refuses to be reshaped.
At Rosenfeld High, rules aren't just enforced -
they're engineered.
And Emma is about to test exactly how far resistance can go.
