And if they are not able to conceive, they become ‘sacrificial’. Isaac soon discovers that he is being framed as the murderer, and as he races to prove his innocence and save the life of a vulnerable refugee soon to be sacrificed, he begins to find out that he is not who he thought he was. As Isaac uncovers a web of systemic abuse leading to the highest levels of power, he begins to unravel the secrets of his own identity and insanity.
