When Todd brings home a repaired AX400 android named Kara, Ella expects another machine programmed to obey him. Instead, Kara begins noticing the things everyone else ignores.

Now a human teenager, a deviant android, and the little girl they both love must survive a city on the edge of revolution—and discover what truly makes someone family.
