In Panem, survival has always come at a cost.
In District 11, Thresh Morrowson has spent his life working the fields, keeping his head down, and doing whatever it takes to protect the people who matter most-his grandmother, his sister Bella, and the girl he's loved for longer than he'll admit. But when his name is called at the 74th Hunger Games Reaping, everything changes. Torn from home and thrown into the Capitol's brutal spectacle, Thresh must navigate a world of manipulation, power, and danger where every smile hides an agenda and every moment is watched. While other tributes play the Capitol's game, Thresh refuses to become their entertainment. Yet strength alone won't guarantee survival-and the arena will demand more from him than he ever imagined giving. As alliances shift and the weight of home pulls at him with every step, Thresh must decide what kind of person he will be when the world is trying to turn him into something else. Because in the Hunger Games, surviving isn't just about staying alive. It's about remembering why you're fighting.
