I thought it was a joke.
Thirty days at my school’s elite fraternity for twenty-five thousand dollars, belonging to a so-called Knight who betrayed my trust, while the King charmed me with the promise of answers.

Still, I joined The Quest to win it,
And nothing—no one—will get in the way of that.
The Honor Challenge won’t be an easy feat. Resisting temptation tests my inner strength and my limits, turning everything I thought I knew on its head.
As hidden secrets slowly reveal themselves, dark threats and unseen enemies emerge from the shadows, and I’m forced to face the truth…
The biggest risk has always been honoring what my heart truly wants.
And The Quest is a dark, dangerous game that we can’t stand to lose.
