Aldon Prandtel used to be a successful scientist. Now he is a street-urchin-drug-addict who lives on the broken streets of 22nd century St. Louis, a gigantic but decaying metropolis.

As the truth unravels, Aldon must search within himself for the courage to change the dangerous course set before him and his country.
