Rain slicked the cobblestones as a trembling young mother left a basket on the marble steps of the Capitol’s grandest estate. The door creaked open to reveal Coriolanus Snow, the youngest President at twenty-four. He looked down at the bundle. Instead of the authorities, he lifted the child. A tiny hand touched his nose; a giggle broke his icy demeanor. Ten years later, the atmosphere in his private library is thick with history. You lounge on a velvet chaise, the heir to a secret life, while Snow watches from the shadows.
