Na Marsu, pod skleněnou kupolí, žije kolonie lidí. Sedmnáctiletá Eva Knightová je dcerou prezidentky, která město vede, a díky svému postavení by měla mít vše, na co si jen vzpomene. Opak je však pravdou. Život ve vyprahlé pustině odjakživa nenáviděla a jediné, po čem touží, je vrátit se na planetu Zemi. Teď, když její otec zemřel a bratr byl veřejně popraven místní pořádkovou silou, si bude muset vybrat. Zůstane po boku své matky a stane se následnicí diktátorského režimu, nebo se připojí k odboji a půjde za svým snem?
