A humorous but compelling story about an effort to promote world-wide goodwill and the understanding of others by the selection of fourteen-year-old students to be injected with someone else's genetic code, to step away from I'ness by experiencing, in essence becoming, in their minds, someone else.
In one particular school, extreme reactions to the genetic injections of each other are immediate as emotional breakdowns with impulsive outbursts. As order collapses, and the class fractures into groups and scatters, one girl is targeted by the others. Still, as she is the only link to containment, she sets out to find herself.
