Flame of Hope — Julie Hodgson

They tried to silence the truth. Instead, they sparked a revolution.In a city ruled by fear and silence, 16-year-old Lexi never expected to become a voice the regime couldn't ignore. When her favourite teacher is dragged away for teaching banned books, Lexi and her friends are forced to choose: keep their heads down… or rise up.By day, they're just students. By night, they're rebels—slipping poems between pages, tagging walls with forbidden truths, and livestreaming resistance from the shadows. What starts as whispers grows into a movement, one act of courage at a time.But rebellion comes with a cost. Friends disappear. Choices get harder. And the line between bravery and danger starts to blur.
