The New Republic of Kamutz is a remote totalitarian state, isolated from the world and steeped in controversy. When Nathan, an aspiring academic, is offered a position at its most prestigious university, he eagerly accepts. But as his tenure takes a series of dark turns, he decides he wants out until he's arrested for a crime he didn't commit.

Meanwhile, undercover journalist Angela arrives determined to expose the state's brutal crackdown on the Amiato Liberation Front, a rebel group with ties to her own family's past. As she risks all to chase her story, she becomes entangled in a dangerous resistance movement she can't escape.

Unaware of the thread that binds them, Nathan and Angela must forge their own paths to freedom: freedom from the state and freedom from themselves. And lurking beneath it all is a secret government project that silently steers their fate. . .
