It started as a fight for freedom; it will end as a fight for humanity. Forced to work for the government, Melvina finds herself on the wrong side, losing what she never had. Fighting a fight she never wanted to be a part of and forced to work alongside those she deemed below her. Toro, whose loyalties are tied to his way of life, fights for a new cause he didn't know existed, all for a girl who sees right through him. Astrid, a prisoner to the country she called home, must fight not only for her life but for every life, and for the right to exist. The Institute was created to house those who could not afford to pay the Life Tax, a penalty put in place to control the people, but they soon find out that the Life Tax may be a cover up for something more sinister. Forced together by circumstance, these three fight for survival; they fight themselves, and they fight each other. On the run from the government that swore to protect them.
