After committing murder, three siblings decide to hide in the city of Isla Verde. It is known for being an anarcho-communist society that promotes inclusivity, freedom, and peace. Much to their surprise, they learn that Isla Verde contains a bizarre set of rules that everyone must abide by. The most important rule is that everyone must wear a masquerade mask at all times. Those who fail to fit into the city's social standards are killed on the spot. This is a violent, yet whimsical and surreal tale of three young adults who are forced to change themselves to survive in a city where insanity is the norm. This story is not for the faint of heart. Reader discretion is advised.
