There are between 33,000 and 100,000 people on Earth who are completely color blind. For many people, the mere idea of losing colors is terrifying. However, for Aurora and the rest of her society, life has always been in black, white and gray. When she wakes up one morning, able to see colors after an unusual encounter with a mysterious stranger, she faints from pure shock. As she goes through her daily life, she discovers that the world she's lived in her entire life is not at all as she thought, and she grapples with the knowledge that she is alone in her abilities to see all the shades in the world, and not just the ones she has been conditioned to recognize.
