Jun Bei, Cole, Anna, Leoben, Ziana. Five children with extraordinary potential.
They don't get many visitors at the remote laboratory where they live under the eye of legendary geneticist, Lachlan Agatta. The man and woman who arrive are nothing like the others.
They're from Cartaxus and offer the children something rare and unfathomable: escape.
But freedom means different things to the five children. For one of them, getting want they want may mean betraying everyone else.
