Seventeen-year-old Kiva has spent the last ten years in prison working as a healer. When the Rebel Queen is captured, Kiva is charged with keeping her alive for her to undergo a series of challenges. Aware that these will kill the queen, Kiva risks her own life to take her place. If she succeeds, both she and the queen will be freed. With an incurable plague, a mysterious new inmate fighting for Kiva's heart, and a prison rebellion brewing, Kiva can't escape the feeling that her trials have only just begun.
