Sixteen-year-old Sharon Hall is now a star, having survived the brutal reality show called "The Battle." And with that title comes all the benefits—and dangers—of a world run by greed and ruled by money.

Though her city received the money it needed to begin rebuilding its fractured economy, the latest season of "The Battle" has left Sharon's life in ruins. With the friends she loved now buried under her feet, Sharon tries to mend her shattered life, taking solace in her newfound fortune. The Developers, however, have other ideas for her. Sharon's actions have led to the highest-grossing "The Battle" season since its inception. And the easiest way to repeat that performance? Make her return to the trenches and kill again. Thus begins another battle. One for her own life, as the inevitability of her return is made clear. But she's been through hell before. And she'll be damned if she doesn't make it through again.
