Welcome to the gladiocracy: a futuristic society where the strongest warriors rule as celebrity kings and tyrants. To those at the top goes prestige, power, and absolute rule. And runaway fighter Tay Mons is learning the hard way what happens to those who stand in their path. Tay used to be the daughter of the greatest hero her world had ever known. But for the past three years, she’s been the Section’s most-wanted ghost instead: the last loose end of a bloody coup at the apex of the gladiocracy. Hunted by agents of the new Champion, she survives as a nameless street fighter in the shadows of her world, dodging the mercenaries and killers sent to track her down. Every night she dreams of finally taking revenge on the men who took everything from her. Yet it’s not until a brush with the prodigy assassin Feint that Tay realizes her chance has finally come, and in the most unlikely shape possible. Because Feint isn’t just any hired killer. She’s the definition of the enemy- but she’s also Tay’s last shot at revenge. FRAY is the third story in the FRAY series, set twenty years after Showmaker. Its sequel, HARMONY, began on 1/18/2025.
