Stripped of her rights for refusing to assimilate, sixteen-year-old Philadelphia Smyrna escapes Earth’s religious containment camps when her father is summoned to work on Mars. The remote research base seems like a haven of tolerance—until she discovers it’s the same base where her brother mysteriously died two years before. Searching for answers, she stumbles into a hidden lab and uncovers terrifying experiments for an apocalyptic weapon. The scientist in charge has cruel plans for Earth, and he will kill to keep his secret hidden. Racing to stay one step ahead, Philadelphia must decide whether to save the people who have oppressed her for her entire life—or save her family and let Earth burn.

All Ephesus Smyrna wants to do is protect his little sister from the oppressive government that killed their mother. But when his scientific success gets him noticed by the wrong people, he's summoned to Mars against his will and forced to leave his sister behind in a state home. Desperate to return to Earth, Ephesus investigates the activity on the station and discovers that his research is being used for hideous experiments. Racing against the clock, Ephesus must find a way to stop a mad scientist from destroying Earth—and make it home alive.

Believing the chaos of her adventure on Mars is behind her, seventeen-year-old Philadelphia Smyrna, an unassimilated Christian, faces a restricted but uneventful future. That is until she and her friend Cea are taken hostage to blackmail Cea’s wickedly genius brother into completing the infamous superweapon Red Rain. If he succeeds, the government will have the power to dissolve entire cities with acid. Desperate, the girls make a break for it. Thrust into the streets with a gun she’s afraid to shoot, Philadelphia realizes her battle with Red Rain is far from over—and this time, turning it over to the authorities is not an option.

With her former enemy Nic as her only ally, Philadelphia races to find out who’s really in charge—before her captor uses her to start a war.

After a video of her act of insurrection goes viral, seventeen-year-old Philadelphia Smyrna and her family become the government’s most wanted. When she intercepts a radio transmission from her father asking for help, she knows she must find him before the government does. Adopting a fake identity, Philadelphia leaves the safety of Mars and returns to Earth. But the government isn’t the only one looking for her. When her former allies in the underground compromise her position, she realizes she’s become a pawn in a war—and both sides will sacrifice everything, including her family, to find her.

Dr. Thomas Smyrna has never been afraid of the law. A stubborn Christian, he’s been racking up felonies since high school and organizing a black market for illegal Bibles. But when the government busts his operation—and his father-in-law takes the fall—Smyrna knows he must lay low and protect what family he has left. That is until the government rounds up all the “unassimilated” and forces them into concentration camps. Desperate to free his wife and children, Smyrna agrees to one last mission—one designed to end the government’s cruelty forever.

After her rash decision leaves her father cryogenically frozen, seventeen-year-old Philadelphia Smyrna races to hack the machine and thaw him before the damage is permanent. Stranded on Earth and wanted by the government, she calls on her father’s old contacts and uncovers the truth she was never meant to find: Dr. Smyrna was an insurrectionist. He was the mastermind behind a plot to end the government's religious intolerance, before a tragic mistake killed his wife. Now the rebellion plans to finish the job and liberate the “unassimilated” once and for all. And they want Philadelphia to take her father's place.

Nic has always been too smart for his own good. The son of the scientist responsible for putting humans on Mars, Nic plans to follow in his father’s footsteps. But when his father is cruelly punished for being “unassimilated,” Nic vows to create an apocalyptic weapon and free the world from United control. Seeking allies, Nic charms his way into the upper ranks, where he meets Min, a high-ranking official with revolutionary plans of her own. Min offers Nic unlimited funding and legal protection. But in exchange, she wants the one thing he can’t give: his heart.

Philadelphia Smyrna lives two lives. To the government, she’s Andromeda, the adopted daughter of an influential family. To the “unassimilated,” she’s Blue Fire, the figurehead of a revolution. Under her leadership, the movement is gaining steam—until the government retaliates by ordering the mass relocation of the unassimilated to Chinese work camps. Philadelphia realizes she must call for war before all her friends are lost. Her opportunity comes when she’s invited to the government’s biggest gala of the year, giving the revolution the chance to take down the United from the top. But to succeed, Philadelphia must do the one thing she promised she’d never do: kill.
