The story begins with a prophecy of a young woman's dark destiny...
As foretold, she must follow her heart.
Even if this leads to the depths of despair.
Finally, in a reversal of dominance, women write the rules and design a future society in their favour.
Fembourne is a world in which there are no unwanted pregnancies.
Safety and choice are cultural priorities.
Fatherhood is a serious contractual obligation. To become a father, a man must meet certain criteria and be scored as worthy.
Most men raised in Fembourne accept the score. All except Sophia's lover, Mark. He pressures her to make him an exception. She is Maiden of the ruling Triune and has the power to approve any application for a man to become a father.
Above all else, Sophie wants to make Mark happy.
But, at what cost?
