"We're here as a terrorist cell looking to bring down the Board of
Officials that essentially controls the entire Human Race. Those on
Earth may have their own figures of authority in the Spheres but
whether they ultimately live or die depends on decisions that the
Board make. If we take them down then Humanity after they're gone
can only be better" At the dawn of the 22nd Century, the Earth is
dead. A lethal alien organism has rendered the planet uninhabitable
and a small fraction of humanity has retreated to Space and the
Moon. Those that remain on Earth are trapped in huge Spheres that
encompass entire cities, tinted to defend against the deadly UV
radiation that the atmosphere no longer protects Humanity from.
17-year-old Alec Corbett lives aboard the adapted International
Space Station. One ordinary day in his mundane life he transforms
his potential when he discovers information that could expose the
corruption of the Board of Officials that now controls humanity.
Armed with nothing but knowledge and his friend Jonah Jones by his
side, Alec's righteous judgement leads them on a merciless and
unforgiving path. For there is one key problem - the information
comes from his father Landon Corbett; a member of the Board. Pitted
against his own flesh and blood, Alec finds himself in a unique
position to end the Board of Officials' dictatorship over Humanity.
However, all is not as it seems and as the stakes grow increasingly
higher, Humanity reaches the brink of all-out-war. Only Alec and
his group of friends can peacefully negate the situation, but it
all depends on whether or not anyone will listen to a 17-year-old
boy.
