Arena One: Slaverunners: Part One

In a future America devastated by a second civil war, survivors are scarce and most of the people left alive belong to violent gangs. Those gangs raid the countryside for captives, whom they haul into New York City to fight to the death in an arena where no one is ever spared.

Seventeen-year-old Brooke Moore has been hiding in the Catskill Mountains with her younger sister, Bree, and staying out of the gangs' way. One day a single lapse leaves Bree captured and carried off toward the city. Brooke, raised by a Marine father to face trouble head-on, sets out after them, and along the way she meets Ben, another teenage survivor whose brother has also been taken. The two team up, and the chase that follows is dangerous and full of hard choices.
