In a stunning reimagining of history, debut author Caroline Tung Richmond weaves an incredible story of secrets and honor in a world where the Axis powers won World War II. In a world where the Axis powers won WWII, the US has been divided up by the victors and the eastern half has fallen under oppressive Nazi rule for nearly 70 years. 16-year-old Zara longs for an America she's only read about -- free from persecution for being a non-Aryan. And she's not alone. The rumblings of a revolution have started, and Zara finds herself drawn into a rebel group determined to overthrow the Third Reich. When Bastian, the charming son an SS officer, approaches Zara about joining the Alliance, she denies all knowledge. Yet Bastian is determined, and Zara quickly decides it'll be easier to keep an eye on an enemy if she knows where he is. Especially since Zara has a dangerous secret that, if discovered by the Nazis, would land her in either a labor camp or a grave. But her secret might very well be the key to taking down the Fuhrer. Can Zara and the Alliance topple the Third Reich for good, or will Bastian betray her, forcing Zara to pay the ultimate price for freedom?

Yet the Cold War still rages, and international rivalries between democracy and communism are now fought at the Pax Games, an Olympic-style competition that pits young pilots of mechas against each other.

Premier Khrushchev will be attending, and after, he and President Kennedy are slated to sign a peace accord stabilizing the war in Vietnam-and their volatile relationship.

So when she's invited at the last minute to compete, she jumps at it. This could be the only chance to save her family's home from debt collectors. All eyes are on Jo from the moment she arrives. But as fighters start dying in the arena, it's suddenly clear that it's more than the usual Pax Games, and Jo finds herself drawn into a deadly political plot.

In a global arms race between superpowers, playing out in violent games that only humanity could create, comes a chilling story of clashing titans, ruthless competition, freedom, and the girl caught in the middle of it all.
