Survival was never part of the curriculum.
After a brutal elimination round wipes out 40 students, Chloe's school is thrust into a deadly game where the rules are unclear, the stakes are lethal, and every choice could mean life or death.
Chloe has never had it easy-her father is gone, her mother is always working, and survival was already a struggle. But now, alongside her closest friends-Luka, Ivan, Casimir, Zoe, and Solstice-she must navigate a twisted competition designed to break them.
In a game where betrayal is inevitable and the odds are against them, one question remains: Who will make it out alive?

UPDATE (1/21/26)
- I had a sequel in mind, but decided it would feel kind of.. hollow.
- So, for now. No sequel. But I'm not exactly done with Detention either..
- Stay tuned. ;)
Lena is nearly done with grad school and the small town she's been living in for the past two years. Having been on her own for most of her life, she's developed a self-sufficient mentality. Working hard to build up a wall and keep people from getting close, Lena is caught off guard when she finds an instant connection with a complete stranger. All it takes is one night for her world to turn upside down because the handsome stranger she can't stop thinking about, isn't who she thinks he is--not even close. Lena is about to question everything about the world she's worked hard to keep at a distance--and embrace a world she didn't know existed.
