Level 16 (2018)
The story is about a sixteen-year-old girl called Vivian. Vivian entered a strange siege at the Vistalas Academy, a prison-like boarding school. Now, Vivian must meet Sofia, the former friend who betrayed her. There is no room for planning except to begin a serious search to uncover the terrible truth behind that siege and the incarceration. Perhaps it may be terrifying where girls should either save themselves or die inside this prison.
