Kadija demands Cynda return to civilization to face the consequences of an out-of-control project Cynda worked on years ago.
But how can she take on the destructive research institute preying on vulnerable, sensitive people when it almost destroyed her once? How can Cynda face the outside world again, now it's awash in so much fear and violence that it suffocates her? As the warring pair reluctantly journey into an oppressive world, the ties that bind them slowly draw them closer. But what happens if those delicate ties ever break?
