To be 'claimed' is when a woman of the age of 18 is chosen by a male the age of 20 to be his wife. They get no say in it. Woman are not equal to men and are seen as incapable of simple tasks. Bellamy Blake hates his society. Especially because his little sister might soon be apart of it. He is 20 and it is his year to chose a 'life partner'. As they call it. He was less that excited. As most of the men were. He wanted a woman to want to be with him not have to be.

The Earth is dying, yet humanity survives. Pollution and radiation run rampant on the surface. The government rations food and clean air for everyone. The glass domes provide some sense of security, but they are only for the rich who can afford the astronomical price of providing precious clean air to a whole city. Nym and her family live outside the dome when the disease breaks out. Spreading through the Minor City Shelter and then to Shelter's around other cities, nothing seems capable of stopping it. People are going mad and dying off like flies. There's no cure they can find. They only know one thing. Their last precious resource is going to be the death of them.
