When you mess with evolution, evolution bites back... Anya Audentia is lucky, apparently. She lives in The City; a place where your genes define your destiny. She is a Gem, and a Tier 2 Gem at that. Her genes have been modified to make her strong, smart and beautiful; everything her society values.

Leyna is unlucky. She is a Nomod. Her genes are raw and unmodified. By definition, that makes her a nobody. Leyna lives outside The City walls with the rest of her kind. Life is hard. Food is scarce. The Gems control everything.

Somewhere deep in the backstreets of The City, a Gem called Reyen is about to take his Trials. The Trials could change his life for the better, or make him more miserable than he could ever imagine.

Anya, Leyna and Reyen each find themselves on totally separate journeys. They have no idea the others even exist, and yet their paths are about to cross in ways more deadly than they could have possibly imagined.

Someone somewhere has a dark secret. While hatred and resentment smoulder in The City streets, the fire for revenge burns brightest of them all.

The City is about to be tested.

***** "A strength of the work is the character development, especially of the heroine, Anya and her Nomod ally, Ben. These two personalities are realistic by our real-world criteria, so we feel connected to both, and we become invested in the reconciliation of their conflicts... The conflict intensifies as the levels rise, and the other story arcs continue, with the conflicts escalating and the tension rising to a tense, action-filled climax." Gordon Long. Author of Petrellan Saga.
