Genetic modification is Reya's living nightmare. "Sequencing," as they call it, was used to cure every disease passed on through genes. Alzheimer's, cancer, you name it, gone. Sequencing left the world with a race of genetically impeccable people, called the Perfect. They are given every luxury, a truth all too real for sixteen year old Reya. She's lived her life under the system of segregation, longing to see the other side of the river, where people can be more than store clerks.
Someone will destroy the world as she knows it, and it just might be Reya herself.

People in the Land survived the destruction of the last world war only to have their lives disrupted again by a wayward asteroid that broke up to rain down on the planet, just as life had begun to regain a sense of normalcy. This second tragedy also disturbed the power-sharing arrangement between two leading factions that had helped rebuild the Land-the Council, and the Order-in an agreement called The Balance. The Council leadership exploited the chaos to drive the Order and its members into exile, ad they began banning the use of most modern technology, which the Council had long blamed for the war. Phoebe is the last remaining product of the Order's genetic engineering programs that still lives under Council rule. She doesn't understand why she's so different from everyone else, and struggles to survive, hiding what she is. The exiled Order members have realized she's in danger, and their leader sees a potential in her that could help them regain their place in society, and to re-establish The Balance.

They have software controlling their vocal output so that what they say always makes perfect sense, even in pronunciation.

Somewhere out there, the original prototype is running about, disguising himself as a normal gen3 RCA, when in reality, he's the only non-organic thing on earth to have emotion, and thought. The other RCAS are programmed to identify him as an immediate danger to the public. So he's always moving around. Looking for the finish to his one computer-made script, aptly called 'fate'. He will find it, and it must be complete.Complete
