Shaylin Herba was no stranger to tragedy. She lost her brother to the Hunger Games, a barbaric pageant that pitted children against each other and made them fight to the death. She also lost her brother-in-law in a work accident. Life in the districts was nothing like the Capitol, it was hard and dangers were more prevalent. And finally, she lost her parents. Shay didn't even know what happened to them. One day they were there and the next, they were gone.
Closed off and reserved to all but a select few, Shay is forced out of her comfort zone and into the Capitol's circus. A tribute of the same games that she lost her brother to, she must fight to return to her family and friends.
However, her efforts become more difficult as she grows closer to those that she must kill to survive. Allies and enemies become blurred as she enters the 74th Hunger Games. Her goal is to survive, to make it back to District 10 in one piece, but what happens if she loses herself along the way? Because the truth is, even the victors are not winners. No one wins when it comes to the games.
