In the four habitable areas of the planet-Day, Dusk, Dawn, and Night-the haves and have nots, criminals and dissidents, and former alien conquerors irrevocably bind three stories:*A violent warlord abducts a young girl from the agrarian outskirts of Dusk leaving her mother searching and grieving.*Genetically modified twin brothers desperately search for the lost son of a human/alien couple in a criminal underground trafficking children for unknown purposes.*A young woman with inhuman powers rises through the insurgent ranks of soldiers in the borderlands of Night.Their stories, often containing disturbing physical and sexual violence, skate across years, building to a single confrontation when the fate of all-human and alien-balances upon a knife's-edge.
