Hiding 14

Maeve Gallagher doesn't belong at Tommen College.
She knows it the second she walks through the gates.
Transferred from Ballylaggin Community High after her parents decided she needed "better discipline," Maeve learns quickly that Tommen is a different world entirely - one filled with noise, colour, and people who look like they've never had to learn how to survive in silence.
She keeps her head down. Keeps her mouth shut. Keeps everything locked away where no one can see it.
At home, survival is an art form. At school, it's a disguise.
But Tommen has a way of noticing what people try hardest to hide.
Lizzie finds her first - loud, chaotic, impossible to ignore, and somehow determined to pull Maeve into her orbit anyway.
Then there's Shannon and Claire, who look at her like they already understand more than they should.
And Tadhg Lynch - quiet, observant, the kind of boy who sees through people without trying.
Maeve Gallagher is good at disappearing.
The problem is... Tommen doesn't let people stay lost for long.
