Countdown To Death

Nobody took the warning seriously. They did when it ended someone's life.
During a packed morning assembly at Brookside High, the lights cut out without warning. Students laugh it off until every screen in the auditorium flickers to life with a flashing skull and a distorted voice demanding $50,000 in one hour. Most assume it's a prank... until exactly sixty minutes later, a student is found dead.

The countdown resets. The ransom rises. The rules shift. And the anonymous hacker behind the threats seems to know the school's secrets better than anyone.

Seventeen‑year‑old Blaine Ellison, the child of a local detective, refuses to stand by while classmates are targeted. As Blaine digs into the victims' hidden connections, a buried tragedy begins to surface-one the school hoped would stay forgotten.

Someone is using the countdowns to send a message.
And Blaine is determined to uncover the truth before the timer hits zero again.
