chapter 1

Katniss goes to Haymitch's unkempt house and wakes him out of a drunken stupor. He sleeps with a knife in his hand and Katniss has to jump out of the way to avoid being slashed. This is the day the Victory Tour begins. Katniss, Peeta and Haymitch, all Hunger Games victors, will be whisked to each District for a celebration before a final banquet in the Capitol.
