Description
Ever-new University is no ordinary institution. Cloaked in prestige and soaked in legacy, it breeds the future elite-young men and women bound by power, pride, and the ancient rivalries of four dominant houses: Liberty, Omniscience, Ascendancy, and Pacifist. But as the senior year begins with grandeur and whispered threats, the air turns sharp with tension. A student's decomposing body is discovered after orientation, and beneath the polished façade of the university lies a network of secrets darker than anyone dares admit. As the house leaders play their games of politics and pride, one student begins to unravel a truth buried in blood, betrayal, and silent watchers in the dark. At Ever-new, legacy isn't earned-it's manipulated. And sometimes, it kills.
