Two cities remain. An unprecedented hurricane destroys what is left of New York and becomes a catalyst for scientist Psyche Hershenbaum to seek the truth.... The government has built a biosphere for the rich and powerful and they plan to abandon their citizens. The earth is dying. Out of the ashes two societies emerge, Psyche's collective, and the iron fisted plutocracy of the biosphere. When the collective's geoengineering project jeopardizes the biosphere's slave labor the two cultures clash. To avoid war Psyche must face her mortality. And humanity's trajectory is forever changed.
