About the book: 2016 / The world has become different: trees have grown through pavements and buildings, humanity has gone wild, water is worth its weight in gold, poorer clans pay tribute to evil glosses, including including people. Seventeen-year-old Lissa was supposed to become a concubine, but after a lightning strike she has the gift of controlling electricity. She is a living battery for electrical appliances that no one has used for a long time. Gloss Adair has been guarding the Law for many years, and he himself breaks it, balancing on the brink of life and death. A risky attempt to understand the mysteries of “past people” will lead them to uncover the Secret of the present. However, some secrets are too expensive. How will Edair and Lissa have to pay for them??
