NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In what was formerly known as the United States, a military prodigy and the most wanted criminal in the land find themselves unexpectedly working together as they uncover their government’s sins.
“Legend will give Hunger Games fans something worthwhile to read.”—VOYA
“A romantic thriller set in a post-apocalyptic world where nothing is what it seems.”—Kami Garcia, New York Times bestselling co-author of the Beautiful Creatures trilogy

Once known as the western coast of the United States, the Republic is now a nation perpetually at war with its neighbors, the Colonies.
Born into an elite family in one of the Republic’s wealthiest districts, fifteen-year-old June is a military prodigy. Obedient, passionate, and committed to her country, she is being groomed for success in the Republic’s highest circles.
Born into the slums of the Republic’s Lake Sector, fifteen-year-old Day is the country’s most wanted criminal. But his motives may not be as malicious as they seem.
From very different worlds, June and Day have no reason to cross paths—until the day June’s brother, Metïas, is murdered, and Day becomes the prime suspect. Now, caught in the ultimate game of cat and mouse, Day is in a race for his family’s survival, while June tries desperately to avenge Metïas’s death.
But in a shocking turn of events, the two uncover the truth of what has really brought them together, and the sinister lengths to which their country will go to keep its secrets.
