Publisher's Summary

Humans—unmodified humans—are no longer dominant on Earth. In their place, the transhuman Bionics are using microscopic nanobots to adjust their genes, reshape their bodies, and perhaps even change human nature itself. Only in a few traditionalist communities do people attempt to live as they have in the past, resisting the allure of this new technology.

In Petram, one such oasis, 17-year-old Agnes just wants to live in peace. But when her friends and then her family start to disappear, she knows that the time for complacency is over. Agnes must reunite her family and convince the rest of Petram to stand up to the Bionics. This takes her on a journey deep into the center of the Bionics' power, the futuristic city of Nissus. Here, she discovers a surprising and troubling new world, where the Bionics seem to be able to control everything: weather, animals, perhaps even her own mind.

Agnes is ready to fight for her home, but soon faces uncomfortable truths about what it will take. Will she truly do anything to save Petram?
