Questions.
You can die for asking the wrong question.
Chase's daughter, Willow, like every other child, is the 'Property of the State.' Usually, so long as you keep your head down, the 'State' pays no attention, and parents raise their children as they always have
Unfortunately, the state has a profound interest in 5-year-old Willow. Chase needs to protect her little girl - but there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
Nate is a son of the inner circle. As the son of the city's leading man, Nate is expected to do his duty and 'keep the peace' as an officer of the state. His reward? To rise, like his father, to the mayorship of the city.
Nate discovers that 'keeping the peace' involves torture, murder, and unspeakable crimes. This is his heritage. This is the city that he will one day rule.
When their worlds collide, Nate will hold the fate of Chase and Willow in his hands. Will he have the courage to rebel? Can he save Willow from her inevitable fate?
