He's one of the men deciding my fate. I'm the fool who volunteered for my own nightmare.

Everyone in the Reach knows what the Hunt promises. A better life. A way out. A chance to win something worth having.

I only need one thing.

My twin brother is dying, and the treatment that could save him costs more than I'll ever have. So I take his name, his place, his chance, and I walk into the Hunt alongside two thousand other people with nothing left to lose.

Seven days. Seven waypoints. One brutal competition where elimination can mean losing everything.

All I have to do is survive.

Then the machine hesitates in my hand, and Ash Clement catches me lying.

He should report me, but he doesn't.

Ash is Tempest royalty, wealthy and untouchable, already promised to someone else. Worse, he's one of the men who decides whether I finish the Hunt.

Avoiding him should be easy. It would be, if Ash had any intention of avoiding me.

Because somewhere between the storms, the trials, and everything trying to eliminate me, his interest turns into obsession.

I entered the Hunt prepared to risk everything for my brother.

I never expected to become the Prey.
