" If one of us returns home alive, I'll be the one our district won't recognize."
Before Mockingjay, before the Girl on Fire, another rebellion began quietly.
Amara Reed of District 11 enters the 55th Hunger Games, admired for a gift the Capitol quickly twists into a weapon for their entertainment. When she refuses to play the role they design for her, she pays a price that only her district ever witnesses.
To the rest of Panem, she becomes a curiosity and a spectacle. To District 11, she is something far more complicated: a survivor carrying a silent wound.
As Amara steps into the uneasy world of mentoring, her life intersects with the only living Victor of his district. A man who knows better than anyone what the Capitol does to those who outthink them.
Some rebellions burn.
Others grow quietly like roots under stone.
