Poverty has plagued Australia for the last 200 years, turning the once prosperous land of opportunity into a hostile desert of severe oppression. When new laws are made to further suppress any uprising, the population are divided, fighting each other for what they believe is right. Can Kyra Avedel save her little brother and sister from a future as slaves, or are they all doomed?
Kyra Avedel, a brave, head-strong girl who lives to provide for her family, is determined to finish school, on her terms. In her final year, when it seems that her wish of graduating will finally be granted, the law is made that Relang Citizenship will come at a cost. A cost too high for the poor.
Together with Blake Anderson, a mysterious boy new to town who sees right through her tough-girl façade, and family who she's not sure she can trust, Kyra will unlock the secrets of her past to save everyone she holds dear.
Haunted by fractions of memory and light: a teddy bear, a hospital room and a blue-eyed boy, she has to decide to trust what is real, to be cautious about appearances and to always watch her back.
The future of everyone she loves lies on the shoulders of the girl with the messed up past and the ability to throw knives.
