Humanity lives inside a vast tunnel that stretches for thousands of kilometers, divided into zones that no one is allowed to cross. Each person is born in a specific zone and is forbidden from leaving it. It is said that "The Silence" lurks outside—a mysterious disease that kills anyone who tries to leave. But the protagonist begins to hear a strange voice through the tunnel walls, urging him to escape. Is he losing his mind, or is he hearing the truth?
A million dollars. One week. One game of hide-and-seek.
When a group of friends answers a mysterious ad promising fortune for playing a simple childhood game, they think it's the easiest deal of their lives.
But inside an abandoned mansion, the rules twist into something darker. Georgia-the beautiful yet terrifying mastermind behind it all-hides secrets that could destroy them. The prize money becomes irrelevant when they realize that in this game, losing doesn't mean defeat... it means death.
Every room hides a trap. Every shadow whispers betrayal. And as trust shatters, they begin to fear not only Georgia, but each other.
Will they outsmart the mansion and survive the week-or will Georgia's sinister plan claim them all?
In the state of Oregon, on Columbia Avenue in the city of Portland, fifteen-year-old Jacob—short in stature, with striking green eyes and short blond hair—arrives to begin his first year at Woodbury High School, a chaotic school infamous for its lack of order.
But Jacob is not prepared for what awaits him.
From the very first moment, he is struck by a harsh reality: the school is ruled by Adam, a tall, athletic seventeen-year-old who enforces his own brutal code, running the school like a self-proclaimed king.
Adam demands Jacob's loyalty.
Jacob refuses.
He won’t bow.
He won’t follow.
In no time, Jacob becomes the school’s outcast, isolated in a corrupted system... until Houssam appears.
A towering Algerian teen with curly black hair and bold Arab features, Houssam has long endured racism and exclusion because he is Muslim.
Feared by everyone—including Adam himself—Houssam chooses to stand by Jacob.
Not just out of solidarity, but driven by a buried desire for revenge.
The rebellion begins… and with it, chaos unfolds.
When two girls join the uprising—Sarah, the tall blonde with emerald eyes, and Rania, the sharp, petite girl with short black hair and light brown eyes behind her glasses—the battle evolves into a clash of emotions, pride, and dignity.
Will Jacob and Houssam's unlikely alliance be enough to topple Adam's tyranny? Or is the game far greater than they ever imagined, threatening to leave them expelled beyond the gates of Woodbury forever?
