What do you do when the brutal system that once kept you safe hunts you down?
No touching today for a healthy tomorrow.
For fifty years, the Key Corporation has defended humanity against a deadly virus that spreads through touch. Lovers donât kiss, or even hold hands. Personal boundaries are valued above all. Break the laws, and youâll face execution.
Elodie, a talented young nurse, believes in the mission of the Key and has never questioned the laws that control her life. But Elodie is forced to break the rules when she sets out in search of a terminal patient who goes missing while under her care.
From the outside, it seems like Aiden was given everything he could want from the Keyâa purpose, an education, and a future. But Aiden knows more than heâs letting on, and the dark secrets heâs keeping could tear the Keyâs strict society apart.
When Elodie and Aidenâs lives collide, the fallout will be devastating. What do you do when the brutal system that once kept you safe hunts you down?
Run.
