Description
In a dystopian world where families are restricted to just two children, young Luke lives in the shadows, hidden away from society. His existence is shrouded in secrecy, as having more than two children is illegal, and the Population Police are always on the lookout for violators. Luke's life is one of confinement and solitude, fundamentally shaped by the oppressive rules of this brutal regime.
As he grapples with his isolation, Luke discovers a glimmer of hope when he encounters another hidden child, a girl named Jen. Their friendship ignites a spark of rebellion within him, challenging everything Luke has known about fear and survival. Together, they embark on a journey that will test their courage and force them to confront the harsh realities of their world, igniting a quest for freedom and identity in a society that demands their silence.
