Setting
North Stonington, Connecticut
June 14, 2071

All hail the United States of Health! And all do. But rumors are spreading of a covert budgetary agency capping the life span of citizens. Elizabeth, living in a remote gentleman’s farmhouse in Connecticut, is fraught with paranoia of her own blue-blood husband. Is he one of the secret agents culling Americans with a mysterious device called the passion light? 

Everything is at stake for Elizabeth, her lavish organic farm of strawberries and the safety of her homosexual son, a son destined for quarantine after sleeping around with her quality-controlled illegals. She’s no revolutionary. But the stranger at her door may be.
