ONE GIRL. ONE TRIAL. ONE CHANCE TO STOP A WAR.

In the 24th century, Mars stands as a world reborn—its cities ruled by women, its people united in peace. For two hundred years, the red planet has known harmony. But beneath the surface, a storm is gathering. A visionary preacher speaks of love and order, promising a new dawn while building a world that would enslave every man on Mars.

Sixteen-year-old Xandra Fallow wants no part of it. She has lived her whole life behind high walls, the heir to a sovereign family haunted by loss. The outside world is dangerous. She knows this. Yet danger finds her all the same.

When the zealot targets her and threatens to ignite a war that could tear Mars apart, Xandra is forced into the Rites of the Daughter—an elite and perilous passage few are chosen to face, and fewer still survive. To live, she must confront her fears, rely on her brilliant brother, and risk her heart on a boy she cannot have.

As power shifts and secrets unravel, Xandra discovers that courage is not born from safety but from the fire that rises when fear takes hold.

A vivid coming-of-age story set in a fractured future, Xandra Fallow is a tale of defiance, destiny, and the spark of rebellion that can change a world.
