In a small provincial campus hiding big secrets, five student journalists stumble upon a ghost project--a youth seminar funded twice under two names. What begins as a simple expose spiral into a dark web of corruption, deception, and danger. As anonymous threats grow louder and friends go silent, they uncover the chilling truth: the youth aren't just being used--they're being erased.

The Fifth Column is a slow-burn mystery-thriller that blends investigative journalism, political intrigue, hard-hitting exposés, encrypted codes, and a dash of kilig--all written through the lens of a campus journalist who dared to question power.All Rights Reserved
