India sometime in a post apocalypse world.   There are remnant portals left by either an advanced civilization or aliens that are a peripheral part of the story.  The main plot is focused on a mostly matrilineal sheriff type of law enforcement group and it’s lone male group, more precisely on a young man and woman from each group.  

Kyra is a bit of a rebel in her home group but becomes more so when her mentor and mother substitute dies mysteriously.   Rustan takes his ethics very seriously and when he errs in fulfilling an assigned duty it racks him with guilt.

This Book is a nice character study of two young people struggling in a very different world.  

I enjoyed it.
