One hundred years from now a gifted scientist’s solution to end world hunger will be hijacked by a powerful corporation, forcing her to rely on an ex-child soldier for survival.
It’s the 22nd Century, and most of the world live in poverty. Dr. Willomina Kincaid offers them a way out – an enzyme that allows them to absorb sunlight as a food source but at a cost. Their children are born green-skinned. Her accidental legacy transforms these children into social pariahs called the “Unbred”. She goes into hiding after the Corporate Caucus blocks her work to reverse the process.
Enter Nurotech who promise to cure the Unbred but kidnap Kincaid to do something else - genetically compel people to consume goods and services they neither need nor want through a new science known as Geneconimics. Maxwell Rawls, the last of an elite unit of Unbred soldiers, knows what truly awaits them. Nurotech experimented on his unit, turning them into cannibals as their metabolism accelerated beyond the limits of man or Unbred.
