For fifty years, the Republic of Caelum has promised its citizens the same four things: Order. Duty. Unity. Continuance. Seventeen-year-old Y/N has never had the luxury of caring about revolution. In the impoverished industrial territory of Braddock, she has six children depending on her, contraband books hidden beneath her floorboards, and enough trouble keeping food on the table without attracting the attention of the Republic. Then a public execution becomes a riot. Caelum releases a chemical meant to bring an entire square to its knees. Everyone falls. Except her. When Y/N bends down to help an injured stranger and a soldier reaches for her, something buried inside her for thirteen years finally wakes—and the whole country sees red. By morning, shaky footage of the impossible girl is spreading faster than Caelum can erase it. The government sees a threat. The resistance sees a symbol. An elite Hound named Saint is ordered to bring her in alive. And somewhere beneath the Republic, a classified program called Project Titan discovers that one of its dead children isn’t dead after all. Caelum has four pillars. The rebellion is about to give it a fifth. Freedom.
