Overview

In a world where genius can be purchased, her gift is natural - and dangerous. In Orpheus Chanson's world, the human brain has been mapped and patented. Geniuses and prodigies like him are no longer born or honed through hard work. Instead, procedures to induce Acquired Savant Abilities (ASAs) are now purchased and utilised by the most privileged sect of society. Zimri Robinson - a natural musical prodigy - is a lowly \"plebe,\" a worker at a warehouse. Her gruelling schedule and her grandmother's illness won't keep her from using her gifts - even if making music is illegal. The paths of Orpheus and Zimri were never meant to cross. He is destined for greatness; she is not. But sometimes, rules are meant to be broken.
