Luscinia Solita awakens to a daily routine in the communal life of an underground city: standing on line for a job assignment, and this time it’s surface duty, trading drugs to the humanoids for records and information. The more they learn of their enemy, the closer they are to preserving their future as a dying race. But her misadventures on the Surface lead her to a young humanoid boy who is obsessed with humans.
Infatuation and loneliness give birth to a highly dangerous affair that pushes the boundaries between natural-born enemies. Solita’s naïve actions have not only put her own life in jeopardy, but the human race as well.
In this dystopian vision of the future, the creation ultimately turns on its creator, the true meaning of a human being is questioned, and the fine line between monster and human is realized.
