A compelling tale that kept me on the edge of my seat until the very last breathtaking twists on stage and beyond. Nova Ren Suma, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Walls Around Us, praised it as a "dazzling, heart-wrenching debut."
Marine Duval and Kate Sanders, best friends since childhood, have trained at the prestigious Paris Opera Ballet School, where they have formed an unbreakable bond through their shared experiences of family tragedies and a deep love for dance. However, their lives take an unexpected turn when the body of a student is found in the dorms just before their final year. As they grapple with the question of how far they would go for the ultimate prize, the opportunity to join the Operas prestigious corps de ballet, Marine and Kate begin to question their moral boundaries.
Would they resort to cheating or seduction to gain an advantage? Would they risk their lives for the chance to achieve their dreams? The girls are unsure, but as Kate gets closer to the Demigod, a talented boy dubbed the "Demigod," Marine finds herself falling for him. The competition intensifies, and Marine and Kate realize that everything they have worked for is at stake, including their friendship and their hearts.
