In a world where silence is safety and obedience is survival, one mistake could mean death-and one secret could burn it all to the ground.
Manon has never dreamed of rebellion, freedom, or changing the world. Her only goal is to stay alive-and keep a secret buried so deep, even thinking about it feels dangerous. A secret powerful enough to destroy the fragile system they all live under. If she dies, it dies with her. And the world? It won't survive what comes next.
Her best friend Ivy is running out of patience-and hope. A decade of loyalty has worn her down, and she's desperate for an escape. But escape isn't possible, not when their boss, David, holds a truth over her head that could obliterate the one relationship she still has: Manon's trust. If that falls apart, so does everything.
David thrives in the shadows. He doesn't just lead the agency that controls their lives-he owns them. Knowledge is his weapon, control his addiction. But the web he's built is fraying at the edges, and he doesn't see it coming. Until it's too late.
Meanwhile, Liam, a boy who's only ever known rejection and pain, stumbles into their lives with nothing left to lose-and maybe something vital to give. For the first time, he sees a future where he isn't invisible.
And Jacob? He's Manon's tether to what little light she has left. Her protector, her partner, her everything. But when love turns to obsession and loyalty becomes a threat, Manon begins to question if the person she trusts most is the one she should fear.
In a world built on secrets, someone always talks.
In a system built on control, someone always breaks.
And when everything collapses-who will be left standing?
