After the Quickening transformed some of Kronos's youth into Flesh Eaters or Healers, the survivors were incarcerated. Now, in the deceptive freedom of Era-2, the formerly imprisoned Quickened are eager for parties and protests, revelries and revolution.

Nora is an unregistered Eater who believes she killed her queerplatonic partner Eden, while her sister Evi took the fall. But Evi lied: Eden is alive, a Healer caught in an espionage plot led by the mysterious benefactor March. When March needs Nora's data-looting device to expose the correctional facilities' atrocities, Nora is pulled from hiding into a revolution, confronting both Eden and her increasingly volatile sister.

In a city prone to devouring its children, every glittering revolution comes at a price. Avra Margariti's tale of civil unrest, betrayal, and belonging set in a climate-ravaged future Greece, for fans of Wilder Girls, Tokyo Ghoul, The Wicked + The Divine, and Blade Runner.
