While other contenders train hard to gain a fighting edge, Hope searches for a way out. Instead, she finds a gorgeous shadow god who may just convince her to stay.
If she survives the final challenge, her mother’s cure would be within reach, but only if Hope can ignore the tournament’s dark purpose.
