What if the tables were turned?
This daring, thought-provoking speculative thriller turns gender norms upside down and demands to be talked about.
When civilization fell, the surviving remnants of humanity were forced to adapt to a mysterious shift in newborns known as the Inversion; females now grow larger than males.
Seven generations later, Tye has only ever known a sparse world dominated by the larger, stronger She (as they call themselves), a world in which men are subordinate and powerless. Struggling for independence as a lowly freeman, Tye curses his weakness and secretly pursues the mysteries of the Before—information forbidden to all men.
When he is caught with prohibited artifacts, Tye faces banishment—or worse. But in the custody of the enigmatic enforcer, Kāya, Tye sees an opportunity to salvage his freedom. If he can hide his feelings long enough...
Risking his life to give Kāya access to a buried historical treasure, Tye uncovers a revelation that rocks their world. But treasure attracts predators, and truth, opposition. When the walls close in, Tye must find his own form of strength, or he, those he loves, and the truth he has uncovered, will all perish.
