They've left the cage--but they're not free yet. After a failed escape attempt and a broken heart, Cora is thrown in with the lowest level of human captives. Cassian now oversees her and her friends in a safari-themed environment called the Hunt, along with wild animals and other human outcasts. There, she serves her new masters as a lounge singer and must follow new rules or face dangerous consequences. Meanwhile, Nok and Rolf have been moved into an enormous dollhouse, observed by Kindred scientists interested in Nok’s pregnancy. Leon, the only captive who successfully escaped, has teamed up with villainous black-market traders. Separated and constantly under watch, Cora and the other humans struggle to stay alive and find a way back to each other. When Cassian secretly offers to train Cora to develop her psychic abilities to prove humanity's worth in a series of tests called the Gauntlet, she must decide whether to trust the handsome Kindred guard who betrayed her--or forge her own path to freedom. The thrilling second book in the New York Times bestselling The Cage series sets hearts aflame across the universe.
