The story is set in a futuristic universe where teenage girls form violent gangs on various moons and planets, particularly Callisto and Io, amidst ongoing conflicts and power struggles. The central theme revolves around youth rebellion, identity, and the consequences of a life entrenched in delinquency. The plot follows Vera, a former gang leader who returns to Callisto after a period of recovery known as matrixing, which has both physically and psychologically altered her. As she finds herself amidst a turf war with the Io gang, Vera grapples with her position in the gang and the dynamic with her rival, Naomi, who has taken over leadership in her absence. Their rivalry escalates into personal challenges and violent confrontations. Amidst the chaos of gang warfare, the introduction of an academic figure researching juvenile delinquency poses questions about their lives and choices. In the end, Vera confronts her past and must decide between returning to her delinquent lifestyle or seeking a different future, ultimately choosing freedom and self-discovery over a return to the gang life.
