Sofia Cruz, a driven 19-year-old journalism student, has just begun her first year at the prestigious Greyhaven College, known for shaping future CEO's and leaders. Enrolled in a competitive investigative journalism program, she is eager to prove herself, especially through a semester-long research project that could launch her career.
her subject: the wrongful imprisonment of Marcus Hill, a man accused of murdering a local
investigator 15 years ago. The case is cold, controversial, and buried under layers of institutional silence.
Assigned to mentor her is Professor Elizabeth Adler, a sharp and enigmatic 40-year-old with a reputation for being both brilliant and intense. She immediately takes a keen interest in Sofia's work-offering insight, access to obscure sources, and even helping navigate interviews that should've been impossible to get.
This leads her to question why she would take such an interest, causing a turn in their teacher-student dynamic.

My home
Out the window, I see her - Hayden Musk, striding across the quad like she owns it. Her rugby bag slung over her shoulder, hair tied up in a way that looks messy but perfect. She laughs at something her friend says, tipping her head back so the sun hits her cheekbones. For a second, my heartbeat trips over itself. Hayden's the kind of person who makes you wish you were brave. I've only ever spoken to her once - last year in the library, when she asked if the seat next to me was free. I remember how she smiled, how she smelled like grass and shampoo. I remember I couldn't speak properly for hours afterwards. Lucy follows my gaze, raises an eyebrow. "You know her?" I drop my eyes fast. "No. Not really." "Right." Lucy flips her hair over her shoulder. "She's trouble anyway." I almost laugh. I don't think Hayden Musk could be trouble for me if she tried. I'm invisible. And maybe that's safer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Part of me is always searching - the next game, the next girl, the next spark that might stick. Then I see her. Felicity Marianne - all soft edges and hidden eyes, hugging her books like they're the only thing keeping her upright. She's too pretty for this place. She looks like a secret you'd promise to keep forever. Alex elbows me mid-sentence. "Hey, Musk - you listening?" I grin, unapologetic. "Sorry. Distracted." "By who?" She follows my gaze, laughs under her breath. "Marianne? She's a ghost, mate." "Maybe I like ghosts," I say. It's a joke but it isn't. I've been surrounded by loud, bright people my whole life. Maybe I want quiet for once. Something soft. Something real. Alex makes a face. "She's way out of your league." I raise an eyebrow. "Think so?" She laughs. "I know so. Come on, Captain. First period. Let's go pretend we care."Complete
