Imagine a world with no adults...bliss, or sheer hell? Simeon has memories...and that means he's dangerous!
In a cold, bleak, insensitive future world, Simeon Allis lives out his controlled life, alone. There is no need for families in his world; everything is provided for by the State. And the Sandmen ensure conformity.
The Sandmen are hideous inventions, created to ensure conformity from the citizens of this new, clinical world. Monstrous killing machines, they enact terrible punishments upon anyone found wandering outside of their homes after curfew. Nightmare visions that haunt the waking and sleeping hours of Simeon’s, and everyone else’s, life.
During the day, brutal ‘re-programmed’ military-style police, called Sweepers, keep everyone in check. This is a world where individuality and choice have no place.
But Simeon is different to most others. He has memories. These memories, of a past life that has now been ‘replaced’, make him begin to question everything he sees, hears and knows.
