Zoe is forced out of her village, separated from her family, as she joins the rest of the population of Mercer in the ten-yearly Round Up. A chance for a new life, giving everyone an equal opportunity, is how it is branded; but not everyone in Mercer is equal.
Thousands of years ago a violent race of beings, the multicalia, evolved. Able to manipulate words, music and emotions they wielded great power. Now their race is forgotten, preserved only by six neglected gods. But as the fabric of time decays the gods are forced to take action once again.
Targeted by Otto, the overseer of Mercer and a powerful Loculite himself, Zoe is forced to run, outlawed with her four best friends. But Otto is not her only threat. The gods are insistent that she takes on godship. However, she must overcome her human desire for power, realising what destruction she could cause as a god.
