A seemingly human girl must learn to survive in a world where animals hold the power and relegate humans to subordinate positions.

At the dawn of an unprecedented climate disaster, animals have evolved to become the dominant species known as Humanimals. These creatures regulate human births and assign them specific roles such as pet humans, entertainment humans, or labor humans... Raised in secret by a human-otter, 16-year-old Murphy enters the Ann Draegar Institute, a prestigious categorization center. There she discovers the dark truth behind the facade of a seemingly perfect society and must decide where her loyalty lies.
First volume of a trilogy.
