From the moment she could walk, wires clung to her skin like veins, screens monitored every heartbeat, and scientists whispered notes while she slept. She learned to speak before the age of two, to dismantle firearms before she turned eight, and to break an adult's ribs with a single strike by eleven. Her world was white walls, fluorescent lights, and the metallic tang of sterilized air.
She was the government's greatest asset-an intelligence anomaly with a perfect memory, enhanced reflexes, and a talent for combat that frightened even the men who created her. They named her for convenience, but the public never knew she existed.
Mula musmos ay pare-parehong tao ang kaniyang mga nakakasalamuha. Kabisado na niya ang bawat sulok ng kaniyang tirahan. Ang bawat bilang, taas, at laki ng mga pader at dingding. Sa buong buhay niya, nakakulong lamang siya sa loob ng isang laboratoryo.
Not until the government requested for her to investigate an uncanny case in a remote island.
She traded her lab gown for a school skirt, her steel for textbooks, her silence for fake smiles. But she didn't know how to be normal. Every face was a suspect. Every hallway was a trap. And somewhere among the island was someone brilliant enough-and brutal enough-to kill without being caught.
That's when she starts investigating Case 346: Saint Maw Disappearance.
They thought living together would only mean splitting rent, food, and chores. But when Jack is found stabbed inside their apartment and his girlfriend Desiree vanishes, the boarding house turns into a crime scene, and every roommate is suddenly a suspect.
Kate swears she wasn't there. Abby insists she knows nothing. Jane claims she saw more than she should have. Secrets, betrayal, and simmering grudges surface, each one more dangerous than the last.
As the police close in, paranoia spreads. Did Desiree kill Jack? Or is the murderer still among them? In a house where lies come cheap and loyalties break fast, survival depends on one brutal truth:
Trust no one.
