After generations of people overused antibiotics and destroyed their immune systems, while simultaneously strengthening germs and viruses and creating superbugs, human beings fled indoors to sterile environments for survival.
Generations later Neklema was born into a world where being outdoors wasn't even something she dreamed of.
Suddenly, with the secret to human survival hidden in her by family she never met, Neklema is the most sought after girl in the world.
Alone for the majority of her life, Neklema has only had virtual contact with other people. Her life has been controlled by the Eugenicists, scientists that focus on the improvement of genes. The Eugenicists sole focus is to re-evolve immune systems back into humans. The Eugenicists attempt to achieve their goal without grace, going so far as to systematically exposing eight year olds to numerous diseases, killing them off, so only the strongest survive.
Nekelma's world is forever changed when she meets Kim. Kim takes her from the Eugenicists' control and brings her to Lambda, the large settlement inhabited by descendants of those who fled the Eugenicists when people were forced indoors. These people share the goal of the Eugenicists, to get people back outside. But are their methods unethical as well? What secret to human survival could Neklema possibly have?
These are questions Neklema must answer before she can decide who she can trust and who she can't.
And the fate of human survival dependent on her? Can she actually deliver that?
