What really happened on Day One?

Everyone has their own version of what happened to the school that day:

The survivor, who escaped but is now trapped in a lie.

The newspapers, hellbent on turning a tragedy into a spectacle.

And the outsider, who claims it never really happened at all...

They all want the truth.

But who's ready to face it?

As events spiral out of control and conspiracies ignite, the true story is revealed. Piece by shocking piece.
