Imagine a world devoid of violence - a world where fists can't hit, guns don't kill, and bombs can't destroy. In this tantalising novel of possibility, this has - suddenly and inexplicably - become reality. In the first days after the change, seven people who have experienced violence struggle to adapt to this radical new paradigm. As their fates intertwine, the promise and perils of this new world begin to take shape. Although violence is no longer possible, that doesn't mean that some won't keep trying.
