In a world sharply divided by race, Callum stands as a nought, a member of the oppressed white population, while Sephy is a Cross, born into privilege and power. Their lives are intricately intertwined in a deeply entrenched society that forces them to confront the painful realities of discrimination and inequality. Callum's struggle for acceptance in a world that sees him as less than human is poignantly depicted through dynamic illustrations, allowing readers to feel the weight of his experiences.
