Seventeen-year-old Trudy Divine carries a cosmic secret: she is Zilvi, a new soul from Selaschora, creator of the Mose-a miraculous creature designed to consume Earth's plastic waste. Though the Elders of the light realm doubt humanity's worth and plot their severe reduction, Zilvi accepts her fi rst fl esh-suit incarnation with a mission to protect her creation. Born to ecologists Sebastian and Sophia Divine in the coastal village of Raisenbreach, Trudy grows up watching her father chase prophetic dreams of a plastic-eating creature while battling Khemia Oil's ruthless, avarice-driven CEO, Hank Karson, who would destroy the planet to preserve his empire. Her unexpected arrival disrupts their environmental work, straining their marriage and leaving Trudy emotionally adrift behind the veil of forgetting, fi nding solace in the embrace of her wise, wizened Nana. Trudy yearns for her distant father's recognition and elusive love, but as the planet progressively suff ocates, he remains stubbornly blind to the salvation blossoming beside him. Guided by signs from above and dream clues from below, Trudy's path to her plastic-devouring marvel places her squarely in the remorseless path of Karson when he learns of the Mose and the extraordinary by-product it produces. Determined to claim it for himself, he will let no one stand in his way.
