Science Fiction
In a world on the verge of environmental catastrophe,
supercomputers have determined that the only way to sustain
life is to run communities logically by rationing every
resource and monitoring every action to make sure it is in
accordance with the Common Good. Amidst a division between
Names (naturally born people) and Numbers (those created
through genetical engineering), detective Ben Travis and his
Number partner Paula are on the case of a murdered plant
prospector. They end up discovering a fatal corruption that
leads Ben to uncover a random emotional error in his
partner: a belief in love. On the run in the ruins of a
world that has been abandoned for 60 years, Ben and Paula
encounter other survivors and rediscover the reverence for
nature, life, and love.
