As the day dawns on the fiftieth annual Hunger Games, fear grips the districts of Panem. This year, in honor of the Quarter Quell, twice as many tributes will be taken from their homes. Back in District 12, Haymitch Abernathy is trying not to think too hard about his chances. All he cares about is making it through the day and being with the girl he loves.

Everyone in Wynotte, North Carolina, knows the name Davy Malcor. Knows the video clip of him juggling four balls, "All at the very same time!" Knows the Marty McFly jacket his mother made for his birthday that he wore proudly, and often. But no one knows what happened to him the night he went missing more than twenty years ago. When the jacket is unexpectedly uncovered, the cold case reopens, and Davy's family is thrust into yet another media storm. But at the heart of the story are four people forever changed by one single night.

Ember Fairheight has everything money can buy, but the one thing that truly matters to her. A foolish choice cost her the love of her life. Nothing can soothe the regret and even after all these years, the only thing Ember wishes for every Christmas is Luke Anderson. Torn away and persuaded by her parents to abandon her first love, Ember still regrets her choice and laments over him. Worse yet, after breaking Luke's heart, she is sure he wants nothing to do with her ever again.
