During the Second Civil War, a new U.S. political party called the Family Protection Movement established The Divide, which separates Normal people from those who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender.

Seventeen-year old Serenity Blackwater lives in the normal Midwestern town of Mapleville, but she is not normal. She hacks into an illegal gay chat room and meets Dawn, a lesbian who lives in a gay community less than a mile away. Serenity discovers normal people can bribe their way inside the walls and decides to go, both to meet Dawn and to check out what may be her future home.

Dawn is even more beautiful than Serenity hoped, and the two soon become a couple. But Serenity only has a few months before she must take the Normal Verification Test, when her homosexuality will be discovered and she'll be separated from her family forever. So she joins the Human Equality Organization, an underground group working to end The Divide. Dawn thinks the rebellion is too dangerous, and since Dawn's ex-girlfriend Malaki is also a member, Serenity doesn't tell Dawn about her involvement.

Serenity reveals to her friends in the HEO that her parents are leading a campaign to organize attacks on all Gay Communities. With her help, the HEO creates Project Jericho to end The Divide. Under Project Jericho, all Gay Communities walls will implode at once.

But there are too many delays, and then Dawn discovers Serenity has been spending more time with Malaki than her. Serenity knows she has to start the revolution herself. She heads to Washington D.C. to contact a group of senators secretly against The Divide ... or is she heading straight into a trap set by the Family Protection Movement?
