Bestselling author of A Study in Drowning and Fable for the End of the World Ava Reid is back with a thrilling new duology unlike anything you've read before.

"It's a tense, fast-paced race to a cliff-hanger of a conclusion to this duology starter. Each character is easy to root for and immaculately rendered as sympathetic, despite distinct flaws. An absolute must-read for dystopian readers and history enthusiasts alike." -- Booklist Reviews (starred review)

It's a game--until it's war.

• A disgraced politician from a powerful American dynasty.
• A coldly brilliant strategist who will sacrifice anything to win.
• A former pageant queen with a talent that could change the world.
• An expert female soldier with an enigmatic past--and a dangerous secret.

In an alternate future where the Cold War still rages, four precocious teenage criminals with dark skills and darker secrets are offered a fresh start at a secret military academy. But instead of training to end the war, they find themselves on a mysterious mission that will test loyalties, forge romances, and maybe end the world as they know it.
