'Even in the future, there is discrimination.

'On the planet of Spectra, hermaphrodites and unmutated humans live together, but not harmoniously. The unknown provokes fear.

'A young woman named Dayna forms a friendship with an immigrant of the planet Tuesday Bright, the hermaphrodite Attis. Amidst the turmoil of an epidemic amongst their food supply, they grow closer, bonds tightening with the miscarriage of Attis' child. They try to ignore the ill-feeling stirred up by their pairing, but neither Dayna nor Attis can deny that the difficulties could overwhelm them.'
