A scientist by nature...he used his rational powers of observation to question the privileges he was born to enjoy - and the people he was raised to despise.

A rebel at heart...she followed her fiercest passions in the struggle to overthrow a legacy of hate - one that had poisoned her family for generations.

On a planet divided...between rich and poor, strong and weak, intellect and feeling, only one thing could bring these two opposites together: A strictly forbidden desire.

For justice. For equality.

For each other...
