The New Earth Project: the promise of a better life? Nothing is less certain... An intense page-turner scripted by David Moitet!

In 2125, rising sea levels and pollution are severely affecting the lives of the city's inhabitants. Most are poor and living in shantytowns, while the elite enjoy a comfortable life under the Dome.
Every week, the New Earth Project (NEP) holds a lottery and takes a lucky few aboard interstellar spaceships to pioneer a new cultivable planet.
Isis, a resourceful and courageous teenager, lucks out with her family in the lottery, but then she meets Orion, the son of the NEP leader. Disappointed at seeing her leave just as she's opening his eyes to the world, Orion investigates the workings of the NEP... and makes some terrible discoveries!
