Katniss a survécu par miracle à ses deuxièmes Hunger Games. Sauvée par un commando venu du district 13, elle réapprend à vivre dans les souterrains de ce district mythique. Elle y retrouve sa mère, sa petite soeur Prim et même Gale, Haymitch, Plutarch et certains des tributs, aussi mal en point qu'elle. Une fois remise sur pieds, Katniss accepte pourtant de repartir sur le devant de la scène. Elle sera le Geai Moqueur, le visage de la résistance contre le Capitole, organisée par le district 13 et son président, l'étrange Coin. La jeune fille espère ainsi pouvoir retourner dans le Capitole pour assassiner le président Snow et sauver Peeta. Mais avant d'accomplir sa mission, Katniss doit répondre à une question cruciale : doit-elle exécuter sa vengeance ou bien chercher la vraie source du mal ? De son choix dépend l'avenir des districts et la survie de l'espoir.
