   Summary

   "He can't hurt me...there's no one left I love."

   Johanna Mason is two things, hated by her District and fiercely loyal to her family and friends. The day her name is called at the reaping, she knows her only way to return to her family is to play the game. And so, on that stage she chooses deception as her means of survival.

   Every move is planned, every facial expression calculated, every tear an act. She gives the Capitol what they want: a show. And Johanna knows how to play a role.

   But Johanna learns that even if you play the game flawlessly, even if you win, in the Capitol there is no prize worthy of the price you pay to play.
