Life has been peaceful in the walled sanctuary of Meridiana.
Cassandra is asking her mother questions that Hokura is not yet ready to answer: what is her origin, and what flows through her veins?
Meanwhile, the compound has new visitors. Tobias, an ambassador from the northeast, is scouting safe zones to improve his own, and offer help to those struggling. But what he's truly looking for only lies within the walled city, and once she catches his eye, he knows he needs to possess her - no matter the cost.
With the clock ticking, can Professor Dorian and the peacekeepers succeed in their perilous journey and bring her back to safety?
How far would you go to save the one you love?
