Drugged, operated on, and abused since birth, Lia Dean's people are forced to rid themselves of all emotion and self-serving thought. Johan people, void of emotion and morals, prove to be capable of extraordinary evil. Can a world like this not only survive, but thrive? When Lia becomes witness to the barbaric acts of her leaders, her very existence becomes a problem. Protected by those she was taught to see as her enemies, emotions start to break free for the first time. Lia's leaders hunt her down as she begins to fall for an enemy of the Johan people. As Lia attempts to escape her tyrant world, she must navigate her way through emotions she's never experienced before and keep her new allies safe from a world that kills for sport.
