Escaping Tatum City was all Lune wanted. Now that she's out, freedom is beyond her reach more than ever. Her adoptive father knows her weaknesses. And if she fails to find Bren and complete her mission, he won't hesitate to exploit each one. To complicate matters further, Ryker, her wildly unpredictable companion, has a mission of his own. Lune quickly discovers that he'll do whatever is necessary to see it through too. 

After events that threw Ryker's motives and Bren's well-being into question, a devastated Lune struggles to keep fighting. Imprisoned once more, her only way of escape is to play by her captor's rules - or face gut-wrenching consequences. As the race to stop the Supreme Elite unfolds, old friends and new join forces, risking everything for a better tomorrow. But the Elite Trials aren't over. And when their purpose is revealed, no one is prepared for the horrifying truth.

Lune Tatum, adopted daughter of the Supreme Elite, has lived within her father's walled city for 11 years. But she wants out. Except she can't leave, and not because of the clans and mutated beasts that roam beyond the impenetrable, electrified walls protecting her life. Her plan has always been to win the Elite Trials and earn Title of Choice - her only chance at freedom. And the only way to return home to her mother. Then a boy from her past arrives on her 18th birthday. His presence threatens Lune's carefully laid plans and exposes memories she's desperate to forget.
