The
first novel written for an adult audience by the mega-selling author of the
Divergent franchise: five twenty-something heroes famous for saving the world
when they were teenagers must face even greater demons—and reconsider what it
means to be a hero . . . by destiny or by choice.
A
decade ago near Chicago, five teenagers defeated the otherworldly enemy known
as the Dark One, whose reign of terror brought widespread destruction and
death. The seemingly un-extraordinary teens—Sloane, Matt, Ines, Albie, and
Esther—had been brought together by a clandestine government agency because one
of them was fated to be the “Chosen One,” prophesized to save the world. With
the goal achieved, humankind celebrated the victors and began to mourn their
lost loved ones.
Ten
years later, though the champions remain celebrities, the world has moved
forward and a whole, younger generation doesn’t seem to recall the days of
endless fear. But Sloane remembers. It’s impossible for her to forget when the
paparazzi haunt her every step just as the Dark One still haunts her dreams.
Unlike everyone else, she hasn’t moved on; she’s adrift—no direction, no goals,
no purpose. On the eve of the Ten Year Celebration of Peace, a new trauma hits
the Chosen: the death of one of their own. And when they gather for the funeral
at the enshrined site of their triumph, they discover to their horror that the
Dark One’s reign never really ended.
