About this ebook

Twelve children entered the classroom. Then the system came for one of them. Teacher Maelin Elsen has survived Majority-1 by understanding the bargain every classroom makes. Keep the children calm. Follow the curriculum. Keep hands where the cameras can see them. Never give authority a reason to look twice. Then Tali is removed for cultural contamination review. Eleven students remain. The school calls it procedure. Maelin starts noticing everything procedure does not explain. Lessons that carry hidden consequences. Cameras that change behavior before anyone gives an order. Safety systems that suddenly care very much about what children have seen, remembered, or repeated. Then the school locks down. Now eleven children are trapped inside a building designed to know where they are, what they are doing, and which doors they are permitted to use. To get them out, Maelin will have to turn classrooms, routines, timing, and the school's own machinery against a system that believes obedience and safety are the same thing. QUIET HANDS is a tense, emotional dystopian thriller about teachers, children, censorship, surveillance, and the terrifying moment when protecting a child requires becoming the danger authority warned everyone about.
