Kendra has accused a crime that she did not commit; thus she decides to seek asylum in Grainne. Unprepared, Kendra Pacelli has to adopt quickly to her new life.

All in all, the Freehold is a great example of an exceedingly pure libertinism or capitalism and in the eyes of the United Nations, the antichrist. The government is made up of the military, small police force, and the courts. The exceedingly small taxation is optional, but it does carry some great benefits. The Rulers are expected to give out there entire wealth, so as to ensure that they do not have any other agendas apart from that of the government. Without the huge government, there is no corruption or pork barreling. Residents are allowed to carry weapons at any time. Crime level is exceedingly low, while the standard of living has increased significantly. Kendra, the protagonist, is exceedingly confused by way of living in the Freehold, especially the fact that no one is going to rape women for wearing provocative clothes. As expected, the women, are armed with knives and guns and anything else that has been rendered illegal on earth.
