"The insurgents had been clever, poking the beehive that is inter-Capitol politics. In a city governed by wealth and status and simultaneously inhabited by people with loads of it, the hunger for power is endless. Some would, upon hearing me say this, call me an enemy of the state. I call it realism. I never claimed to hate the system anyway. In fact, I had always thrived in it."In the Capitol, the stark divide between the privileged rich and the oppressed outskirts sets the stage for a story of love, rebellion and sacrifice. Celestine, the daughter of the president, is thrust into a world of political intrigue when her brother, Miles, mysteriously disappears and is pronounced dead and she is left with the duty of following in his footsteps.As she embarks on a quest to find him, she crosses paths with Rue, an insurgent fighting against the Capitol's tyranny in the poverty-stricken outskirts and struggling to help her family make it through another day. As Celestine struggles with her destiny to inherit power after her brothers death, and Rue fights for justice beyond the towering walls of the Capitol, their fates intertwine and difficult, dangerous feelings arise between them. The girls are forced to make amends with their fates in the world. The story has been finished before posting! New chapter every day :)β¦
