Young Eddie Russett has no ambition to be anything other than a loyal drone of the Collective. With his better-than-average red perception, he could well marry Constance Oxblood and inherit the string works; he may even have enough red perception to make prefect. For Eddie, life looks colorful. Life looks good. But everything changes when he moves with his father, a respected swatchman, to East Carmine. There, he falls in love with a Grey named Jane who opens his eyes to the painful truth behind his seemingly perfect, rigidly controlled society. * Curiosity—a dangerous trait to display in a society that demands total conformity—gets the better of Eddie, who beings to wonder: Why are there not enough spoons to go around? * Why is everything—and everyone—barcoded? * What happened to all the people who never returned from High Saffron? * And why, when you begin to question the world around you, do black-and-white certainties reduce themselves to shades of grey?
