About this ebook

They drugged me, dressed me in pink, and dropped me on an island. Big mistake.

I woke up in a pink tracksuit surrounded by terrified women. No phone. No wallet. No idea how I got here.

Turns out I’ve been kidnapped, drugged and dumped on some godforsaken island to compete in something called The Race. A hundred women. No rules. Just run, fight, and kill while the rich and powerful place their bets on who makes it out alive.

I was a bartender yesterday. Today I’m supposed to be a warrior.

Cute, right?

Now I’ve got a sword I barely know how to hold, a psycho Spaniard calling herself my teammate, and cameras broadcasting every bloody moment to the world’s elite. They think I’m just another victim.

They’re wrong.

Because I’m not here to play their game.

I’m here to break it. 

Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Battle Royale, and The Running Man

Fast-moving action; an interesting and enjoyable twist on the death-gameshow concept.
