Sephy is a Cross - a member of the dark-skinned ruling class. Callum is a Nought - a 'colourless' member of the underclass who were once slaves to the Crosses. The two have been friends since childhood. But that's as far as it can go. Until the first steps are taken towards more social equality and some Noughts are allowed into Cross schools.

  Synopsis Details Reviews Interview  
Sephy and Callum have been best friends since childhood, and now they are older and they realize they want more from each other. But the harsh realities of lives lived in a segregated society are beginning to take their toll: Callum is a nought--a second-class citizen in a world dominated by the Crosses--and Sephy is a Cross, and the daughter of one of the most powerful men in the country. Soon the barriers between them threaten not only their friendship, but their lives.
