On the moon Novena, the drastic change of seasons force humanity to follow the thin band of livability as it moves up and down the globe. As the north falls into shadow, citizens prepare to move south. Their enemies have other ideas.

Sophie Song is a Stem Shifter—a person who can alter Space, Time, Energy, and Matter with their minds. When she discovered her country’s enemies seized their land, she thought things couldn’t get worse. She was wrong. When she discovered Stem Shifters she knew and loved had joined the enemy, she thought things couldn’t get worse. Wrong again.
