Everyone is watching. When Alyssa Raymond earns a full scholarship to the prestigious Blackthorne Institute, she believes her future has finally begun. Instead, she enters a world of secrets. A world where students are profiled, ranked, and trained for purposes far beyond education. A world where a hidden program called Prophecy quietly shapes lives from the shadows. A world where every conversation is an evaluation and every success comes with a cost. As Alyssa uncovers the truth behind Blackthorne, she must decide what matters more: becoming exceptional or remaining herself. Because some institutions don’t just teach students. They create them. And some secrets were never meant to survive.
