WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO ESCAPE A LIFE OF TORMENT? ANYTHING.

And sixteen-year-old Isa will do just that.

In The Nation, women are second-class. They're on the planet to work for a master until death. Enslaved by society. Enslaved by their fathers. Enslaved by The Fighters.

When Isa's auction day arrives and she's auctioned off to the vile General Flinch, she's not happy. But when she accidentally burns his house to the ground, she's a dead girl walking.

The only way to save herself from execution is to pose as her dead brother, Iden, and seek sanctuary amongst a group of Rebels. Rebels who may or may not be on her side. Rebels who are lead by the kind and brain-meltingly gorgeous, Roan.

Keeping her identity a secret is challenging. Doing so when her feelings for her new leader are growing stronger by the day may be impossible. Especially when a traitor surfaces within the group, threatening the new life she's worked so hard to build.

IF SHE'S FOUND, SHE'S DEAD...BUT SHE'LL TAKE AS MANY PEOPLE WITH HER AS SHE CAN.
