Branded

The Fifty Year War ended. But peace has a price.

When the nations of the world signed the Treaty, they didn't just end the war - they agreed to something far darker. Every year, each country selects one Sinner to enter the Sin Games. Every sin committed inside has a consequence. Every consequence is broadcast to the world.

Seventeen-year-old Trevor Martik never expected his name to be called on Choosing Day. Now he's America's Sinner - watched by millions, judged by every move he makes, and carrying a secret that could get him killed: he doesn't just want to survive the Sin Games.

He wants to destroy them.

But dismantling a system built into the bones of the world's peace treaty isn't a one-person job. And when Aurora Gregory enters the picture, Trevor begins to realize that some sins aren't committed inside the game - they're committed against the people fighting beside you.

In a world where your worst moments are entertainment, the most rebellious thing you can do is refuse to break.

*Branded.* The games were built to control them. They were born to burn it down.
