Climate change has scorched the planet, leaving an environment that can barely support life. Relatively few survivors live a stark existence in widely separated villages. They are dominated by NOY, the ruling class that controls every detail of their lives—even breeding is regulated. Gone are culture and government, and time is kept not by clocks and calendars but by the sun and moon. Welcome to NOY World.

The story is told by Karina, Roberto, and Daniella, three friends who struggle to survive their humdrum existence. They risk moving to separate villages in order to pursue a better tomorrow. Readers will be captivated as they witness how the human spirit overcomes the nearly total degeneration of the surrounding environment.
