Natasha Masterson, an enhanced human who is being charged with the murder of her former guardian, must come to terms with an ultimatum she is given.
***
Natasha Masterson, in a fit of pent-up rage, accidentally killed her former guardian. Given the disdain toward enhanced humans and the government restricting their movements, she is faced with an ultimatum. Either face a prison sentence in one of the infamous prisons for people like her or agree to take on a new guardian and start a rehabilitation program with the Canadian government. The lesser of two evils, she agrees to travel with her new guardian, Andrei Cojocaru, to the Canadian border.
Yet, once they arrive in the assigned town, things start to pile up, making them question if everybody in the town is who they claim to be.
