In a world where humanity is confined to a single settlement ruled by the authoritative Party, Matthew finds himself in deep trouble that exiles his family to the Outer Ring. But when he saves Cyana - a Rebel - from certain death, he crafts a plan to befriend her and infiltrate the Rebel's stronghold to find the Party's most wanted enemy - the Rebel Cherry Blossom, a villain known for assassinating numerous Party leaders. Now that would be enough to redeem his family's favor with the Party and atone for his sins. But as Matthew worms deeper into the Rebel's movement, he starts to emphasize with them, particularly Cyana, who he slowly falls for. Now he's faced with a decision that will change the course of his life - obey the Party and save his blood family, or fight for his chosen family and the girl he loves.
