Veil Of Deceit

Veil of Deceit
Lucian Vale transfers to one of the country's most prestigious universities with only one purpose: to uncover the truth behind his brother's death.
The police ruled it as suicide, saying his brother jumped from the rooftop of the tallest building on campus. To everyone else, it was a tragic but simple case, something to mourn and eventually forget.

But Lucian knows better.

He knows his brother would never choose to end his life like that. The unanswered questions, the silence from those who knew him, and the fear hidden behind people's eyes all point to one thing: someone is lying.

Behind the university's polished reputation lies a darker world, one built on power, privilege, and cruelty. The campus is ruled by a group of wealthy and influential students who use fear as control. Bullying is treated like entertainment, manipulation is mistaken for friendship, and the weak are left to suffer in silence.

His brother was one of them.
Determined to uncover what truly happened, Lucian steps into a dangerous game where trust is rare and everyone has something to hide. The deeper he digs, the more he uncovers secrets that were never meant to be exposed. Betrayal hides behind every smile, and even the people closest to him may be part of the truth he is trying to find.

In a place where lies are protected and justice is bought, Lucian must decide how far he is willing to go.
Because sometimes, the truth is more terrifying than the lie.
And sometimes, revenge feels a lot like justice.
