Old Wounds

Every secret has an origin. Every lie leaves a witness.

When journalist Melissa Hargrove opens an anonymous email containing a cryptic link titled “The Nurse’s Office,” she thinks it’s another rumor tied to the decades-old death of Lauren Price — the promising student who fell from a boarding school rooftop under mysterious circumstances. But the file reveals something far worse: a forgotten video showing the moment Lauren’s story was rewritten by someone meant to protect her.

As Melissa and her estranged daughter Ava dig into the hidden archives of the elite Silverpine Academy, they uncover decades of buried abuse, coerced silence, and carefully staged accidents disguised as “rites of passage.” Each file they open leads to another lie—and someone powerful is desperate to keep the rest sealed.
