Through the ashes of a war that almost led them to extinction, rose the remains of humanity. Learning from their past mistakes, humans chose to live a life full of happiness and contentment. A life free from suffering, despair, disease and unprovoked death was what they aimed to create. This altruistic thought gave birth to an idealistic society called the Centre. Violet Jaeger was a proud citizen of this society and had recently turned twenty-three. She was finally eligible for the quarterly Lottery, the winners of which had the privilege of working for and with the flawless system that governed them. A system kept perfectly in place by its three strong arms - Governance, Research and Military. A perfect score in the designated aptitude test gives Violet the opportunity to choose her path in life. Having always been curious to see what's beyond the confines of her home, she chooses the path that allows her to explore the elements unknown. However, what makes up the unknown ends up surprising her more than she expects.

Imagine the second you're born, a consultant removes you from your mother's grasp and runs a battery of genetic and physiological tests on you. Thirty minutes later they give you a score out of one hundred which denotes your level of perfection. If your score is above eighty and you work hard to maintain that score you will have a charmed life; well fed, well-rewarded, spoiled. But fall below eighty and you're labelled Flawed, and life will not be so kind. Hannah is adopted by a Flawed family when her birth parents choose their social standing over their daughter and endures a life of struggle, hunger and service. One day Hannah is escorted to the regional government office and told that the Consultant who delivered her, who labelled her Flawed got it wrong! Now, she is being relocated back to her birth parents, to live as one of the Ninety-Five- all medically and legally judged as perfect.
