In the new world of The Takeover, nothing and no one is safe.

IgNiTe doesn't trust me anymore. They are trying to keep me away from the fight, but they won't succeed. One night, I secretly follow my boyfriend, Xave, to a club and discover him and other members of IgNiTe hanging out with our enemies. A bloody ambush follows, and the chaos that unfolds wrecks my life, destroying everything I hold dear.

Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious attacks. IgNiTe, the only resistance group, is disintegrating. As the world catches fire, I struggle to control the buzzing shadows in my head, but it's getting harder.

Good and evil war within me, and I'm losing control. The shadows loom, and I fear I'm meant to burn with the rest of humanity.
