The White Room is a secret, extreme education facility designed to create the “perfect” human through total control and ruthless training. Children are taken at a very young age, isolated from society, and raised without emotional support, freedom, or individuality, with failure never being an option. Ethan, one of its most successful products, emerges calm, unreadable, and dangerously capable, entering the elite school while deliberately hiding his true abilities in an attempt to escape his past and experience freedom. However, that freedom is fragile—Blair, a girl who also attends the school, holds an unseen power over him due to something that happened in the White Room, allowing her to influence or control him in ways no one else can, making her presence both a threat and a reminder that the White Room never truly lets go.
