Terra Nullius
In an alternate near-future Australia, the population is divided into two castes: the Native Indigenous Australians and the Settler descendants of British colonists. The law forbids any sexual or romantic contact between the groups; those who do so are executed on sight. Tamarra, a woman born to both a Settler mother and a Native father, must navigate this segregated society while hiding her forbidden identity from authorities determined to purge anyone with mixed heritage.
