White boy in 2030 helped by coloured girl from 2131 to cure a super virus decimating non-coloured people.
It is 2030. The world is torn by racial and class disharmony teeters on the brink of disaster.
A super-spreading virus is damaging the brains of everyone it infects. No, not everyone. It seems to be targeting people of one particular race. White people.
When Stephen and his parents become sick, Stephen is pulled forward in time to a completely different future. With the help of dark-skinned Ally, a telekinetic girl from the future Stephen can find out more about the plague hurting people-but it's 2131 and how will that benefit his time. Besides he must prove himself worthy first.
