   Summary

   Districts 1 and 2 are notorious for their bloodlust tributes— and Victors. Being a Career is something of a privilege, though nothing about being in the Games is ever that way.
   Ophelia Hadley comes to learn, soon enough, that the odds are not always in the Careers' favor, nor is it that way for those who make it out of the arena alive.
