WHAT IF YOU KNEW YOU WOULD ONLY LIVE 25 YEARS?
The year is 2099. When humans are born, their futures are predicted. Genetic diseases showing up later in life? The doctors will know it. The information is there, but who gets to know?
19 year old Kaden knows. He’s one of the 35% that are predicted to die before age 25. Time is running out for him, he’s tired of following standards, and he’s finally doing what he wants- joining the Reckless, a group of Youths notorious for their dare-devil pranks and wild stunts.
There’s no doubt about it- the Reckless are dangerous, and destined to die. So is it worth it to live your life the way you want, possibly shortening it? Or is it better to play it safe?
