   Summary

   Three years after the the Fourth Shinobi War, newfound peace in Konoha is rocked when one of their own is suspected of treason. Determined to uncover the truth, Sakura takes it upon herself to dive deep into Konoha’s best-kept secrets and reveal who was behind the bounty placed on Sasuke. As she faces danger and betrayal, can she protect the village and those she loves?
   Blank period, mostly canon-compliant with some OCs and potential timeline discrepancies, SasuSaku-centric but will feature all canon pairings.
