現行法規禁止墮胎，保障受精卵成人的權力，但保障只到13歲。到18歲前，其父母可自行決定是否分解孩子，他們的軀幹與臟器可以移植，算是生命延續的另一種方式而非終結。
但將遭分解的孩子，並非每個人都對政府與雙親的支配照單全收，逃家的「分解人」自成一國，面對各方勢力、甚至是由分解器官組出誕生的新人類，誰能信任、而生命的意義又是什麼？


Thanks to Connor, Lev, and Risa—and their high-profile revolt at Happy Jack Harvest Camp—people can no longer turn a blind eye to unwinding. Ridding society of troublesome teens while simultaneously providing much-needed organs for transplant might be convenient, but its morality has finally been brought into question.

But unwinding is a big business, and there are powerful political and corporate interests that want to see it not only continue, but also expand to the unwinding of prisoners and the impoverished. And the minds behind unwinding have already begun pushing its boundaries.

Cam is the first “rewound,” a futuristic Frankenstein’s monster who does not technically exist and is made entirely out of unwinds’ body parts. He struggles with his identity and the question of whether he has a soul. And when the actions of a sadistic bounty hunter inextricably bind Cam’s fate with the those of Connor, Risa, and Lev, Cam comes to question humanity itself.
