Nearmount's a town right smack in the middle of the "maggothole": a federal district where mutants exist to breed, spread disease, and get shoveled off the streets when they die. Madison is one of the few who's afforded the privilege of getting an education. An aspiring protector of the community, he wants to become a police officer to ensure the safety of his people-but after taking an alternate route one day, he meets the unfortunate Smidge, a boy whose mutation is so dangerous that he's forced to self-isolate. Smidge never asked for his help. Madison presumes it's because he thinks he isn't deserving. But if he can't save the unsaved, then what use is he to anyone?All Rights Reserved
