“There are symptoms of having a death sentence. All are painful, and your demise is almost impossible to avoid—yet here we are, still trying to survive.”

In a world suffocating under overpopulation, survival is reserved for the obedient. Break the rules, and your child is condemned to The Survival Trials—a brutal gauntlet designed to test strength, intelligence, and the will to kill.

Sixteen-year-old Tori knows the rules: only one will survive. This is win or die.

But when the rival she should fear most becomes the one she can’t resist, survival means facing something even more terrifying than death—killing him.

As alliances blur and feelings ignite, Tori’s careful plan begins to unravel. Everything she believed is thrown into question, including the true purpose behind the Trials.

In the Trials, love is just another way to die.
