A perfect society. A chance for revenge. But the world will shatter in her wake. The Queen has rampaged. The ones who fought are dead. She has survived against all odds. Lithiah Everette has lived in constant fear since her parents were executed for their rebellion. And all she's ever done has been to stay hidden from the system and the Queen. But when a cloaked figure appears at her doorstep in the middle of the night, the truth of her identity is put in jeopardy. Taken from her home and forced into a terrifying role, her captor offers her a chance for revenge. And he trains her to murder the most powerful person in the world. Labeled a legend. And forced to rise up, Lithiah's decisions will decide the fate of their world.
