Legend

In a post-apocalyptic dystopian nation formerly known as the United States, a military prodigy and a wanted criminal from opposite sides of society cross paths. June is an elite fifteen-year-old being groomed for leadership, while Day is a notorious slum-born fugitive hunted by the state. When a high-profile murder intertwines their lives, they uncover dark secrets about their government. Together, they must navigate a dangerous conspiracy that threatens everything they know.
