Centuries ago, Earth's plants turned deadly, and humanity took to space to cultivate new homes. Myra Hodger is in her first year at an elite school on the Moon, and she's crumbling under the pressure. She doesn't fit in, and worse, the tattoos that signal her Number Whisperer magic aren't developing. In her heart, she knows she doesn't have a Creer, and soon everyone else will, too. Wandering the halls while cutting class, she discovers a secret lab hidden behind one of the unused classrooms and, beyond that, a secret garden overflowing with plants. Dangerous toxic plants.

Forced to hide her new-found magic or risk imprisonment—or worse—Myra enrolls in an interplanetary academy exchange program to dig up more about the government's many conspiracies. Instead, she uproots even darker secrets that could drown everything she's grown to trust.

Thrown on a ship on a one-way voyage to uninhabitable Earth, Myra, Hannah, and Bernard believe they'll never see their home or the people they care about again.

Unbeknownst to just about everyone in the galaxy, the Old World is inhabited by Botans and many generations of their offspring. That means maybe Canter's mother and Hannah's sister might be there, too.
