Welcome to high school, where the lessons are lethal and some secrets are engineered to stay buried.
For junior Elio, survival was never supposed to mean dodging the relentless scrutiny of an institution that watches his every move. But when a sudden, terrifying accident shatters the boundaries of what he thought was possible, Elio unlocks a strange, unexplainable shift within himself-something raw and entirely uncontrollable.
The people in charge don't see a victim; they see an asset to be managed, tested, and pushed to the absolute edge.
Enter Cal-a brooding, sharply intense student with a military-precise look and a quiet aura who appears out of nowhere, a stranger Elio has somehow never noticed in the halls before. He doesn't offer comfort, and he doesn't ask questions, but as the walls close in, his sudden presence changes everything.
Elio is running out of time to figure out who he can trust before the system takes control for good.
