It's the future. Post pandemic. A virus called A.C.I.D. has long since been defeated but mandatory tests hold place every month to assure that humanity is safe.

There is nothing to worry about. The test is a precaution. Only... what if it isn't?

17 year old Masie Sutton gets a strange test result.

Kain is one of the other guys on the Glimmers. Masie and Kain have been enemies as long as they knew each other. Obnoxious, brutally honest but also the most competent person on this cruise, Masie soon starts finding herself trusting the one who can't be trusted.

As they dive deeper into the sickly greens of whatever planet they have landed on, some of them manage to get kidnapped...
