They ended the Hunger Games. Or so they said.
Twenty-five years after Katniss Everdeen shot an arrow through the heart of tyranny, Panem is quiet, but not at peace. The Capitol has found a new way to remember the past: The Legacy Quell, a one-time Hunger Games exclusively for the children of victors. "For honor. For remembrance. For unity," they say. But the truth is blood never forgets.
Rose Mallark, the daughter of the Mockingjay, has spent her life trying to outrun the shadow of war, rebellion, and loss. But when her name is drawn from the Reaping bowl, her worst nightmare becomes reality.
Across the country, Tide Odair, son of the Capitol's golden boy Finnick, is also chosen. He's charming, deadly with a trident, and grieving a mother who never recovered from the sea. He's not supposed to care about anyone, not in the arena. Especially not her.
Thrown into a twisted Games designed to test legacy itself, Rose and Tide must survive not only the arena, but the weight of the world their parents left behind.
And in the heart of it all, two children born of fire and water may find something the Capitol never expected: love.
