Thirteen years after the fall of President Snow, a new tyrant—Gareth Storm—revives the Hunger Games across 30 European districts, forcing each to send four tributes into a deadlier, redesigned arena. In District 11, siblings Miles and Rohan Ainsworth, along with Phoebe Haddock and Juniper Ashworth, are thrust into Storm’s brutal new Games, where alliances outside their district are forbidden and survival is nearly impossible. As the arena traps them in a world stuck between false daylight and endless dusk, the four uncover Storm’s true plan: to use the Games as the beginning of a continent-wide purge of future rebels.
