Bianca St. Claire had it all – fame, wealth, and millions of devoted followers watching her every move from the safety of New Manhattan's fortified Safe Zone. But when she's selected for the Restoration Initiative's latest Tournament, her perfectly curated world shatters. Thrown into a deadly game inside an abandoned mall, Bianca must navigate more than just the murderous contestants hunting her. The Initiative's modified infected roam the halls, growing smarter with each kill, and even the mall itself seems engineered for maximum bloodshed.
As alliances form and break, Bianca discovers that survival requires more than just her influencer charm. With a mysterious thief watching her back and a brilliant anarchist wreaking havoc, she's forced to become something else entirely – someone willing to kill, someone capable of leading, someone who might actually survive. But in a game where the Initiative controls everything, even victory could be another carefully crafted lie.
In this heart-pounding thriller that blends survival horror with psychological suspense, one thing becomes clear: when every moment is streamed for entertainment, the most dangerous game isn't outrunning the monsters �� it's keeping your humanity while the whole world watches.

Each novella plunges you into a different Tournament setting, from abandoned malls to eerie hospitals, where contestants fight to survive under the shadow of a sinister conspiracy. Every story stands alone, with its own unique cast and stakes, but together they weave a chilling narrative about the true purpose of the Tournaments and the growing power of the organization behind them.
Here’s how it works:
- Standalone Survival Stories: Each novella introduces a fresh cast of characters thrown into a deadly arena designed to test their limits—and yours.
- Connected Conspiracy: As the series progresses, fragments of a larger mystery come into focus, revealing the terrifying truth behind the Tournaments and their true goal.
- Rapid Releases: New books drop every two weeks, so the action never stops.
- Your Path, Your Pace: You can dive into one novella or devour them all—each story offers its own shocking revelations while contributing to the overarching plot.
Genre: Science Fiction
