In his eagerly awaited fourth novel, New York Times-bestselling author Nick Hornby mines the hearts and psyches of four lost souls who connect just when they've reached the end of the line.

In the blink of an eye, everyone disappears. Gone. Except for the young. There are teens, but not one single adult. Just as suddenly, there are no phones, no internet, no television. No way to get help. And no way to figure out what's happened. Hunger threatens. Bullies rule. A sinister creature lurks. Animals are mutating. And the teens themselves are changing, developing new talents—unimaginable, dangerous, deadly powers—that grow stronger by the day. It's a terrifying new world. Sides are being chosen, a fight is shaping up. Townies against rich kids. Bullies against the weak. Powerful against powerless. And time is running out: On your 15th birthday, you disappear just like everyone else...

Dimka Dvorkin, a young aide to Nikita Khrushchev, becomes an agent both for good and for ill as the United States and the Soviet Union race to the brink of nuclear war, while his twin sister, Tanya, carves out a role that will take her from Moscow to Cuba to Prague to Warsaw—and into history.

Jej krew jest czerwona – to kolor pospólstwa – ale jej Srebrna zdolność, moc kontrolowania błyskawic, zmieniła ją w broń, nad którą dwór królewski chce przejąć kontrolę. Ścigana przez Mavena, mściwego Srebrnego króla, Mare postanawia odnaleźć i zwerbować innych Czerwono-Srebrnych wojowników, żeby dołączyli do rebelii. Sama jednak ląduje na zabójczej ścieżce i ryzykuje, że stanie się dokładnie takim potworem, jakiego próbuje pokonać. W elektryzującym drugim tomie cyklu „Czerwona Królowa" nasila się walka między rosnącą armią rebeliantów i podzielonym według koloru krwi światem, który znają od zawsze, a Mare musi też walczyć z mrokiem, jaki rozrasta się w jej duszy.
