Roald is an impoverished orphan, filled with an anger that he doesn't know how to control. Devika is an heiress, trapped in a gilded cage, lavished upon, and locked up for her own safety. When Roald starts receiving cryptic letters from his brother, lost at sea and presumed dead, he finds that he has something in common with the strange, rich girl to whom he is drawn. Devika, surrounded by family, finds herself alone with her secrets, until, by chance, she uncovers that Roald shares them too. Together, Roald and Devika make a pact to prove that what makes other people think they are both crazy, is what is actually at the heart of New Babylon's corruption.
