Seventeen-year-old Bear lives in the walled town of Callestona place of stark divide between the rich and poor. Living down in Cobbleside, Bear is painfully conscious of the inequalities between him and the residents of Roofside. When the town's annual Field Dayan event during which those who've recently come of age test their Sinsen growing capacitiesshows Bear to have unprecedented abilities, he's hurtled into the upper echelons of society and everything he's ever wanted is within his grasp. But it soon becomes apparent that it's not all he expected it to be. He finds himself existing amidst uncaring, callous people, concerned only with themselves, living in a society in which corruption is rife. Finding himself unwillingly entangled with the Overlord's beautiful but spiteful daughter, Bear is forced to make decisions that may jeopardise everything he's dreamed of ... or risk the lives of the people he once lived amongst.
