When a bomb explodes in the smart metropolis Elite City, Virginia, killing a disrespected professor, all evidence points to a student-led organization at Elite University: The True Eagles are hell-bent on removing the abusive and unjust Elite University administration, hoping for better, fair policies and a chance to succeed in a state-of-the-art institution.
Daniel Trasmen, a senior at Elite University, was once a former journalist, protected from the heinous rules of the university, and all the while he kept his profession of espionage and operating as an agent from his classmates. Tasked to investigate the perpetrators of the bombing by the unorthodox Manassas City Counter Terrorism Unit, Daniel quickly realizes that not everything is what it seems. The leader of the True Eagles denies all involvement but continues to aggressively push for the removal of the university's principal, and the shadow of lies begins to envelop the school.
Sworn to secrecy, Daniel must walk the blurred line of truth and lie, but when his own classmates are suspected of terrorism, how far is Daniel willing to go for the truth?
