Le quotidien de l'adolescente en Basse République en est un de pauvreté, tandis que le gouvernement maintient la population dans l'ignorance et la soumission. Chaque jour, Emma se rend à l'école où austérité et discipline font loi. Là, comme ailleurs en Basse République, les moindres paroles et gestes sont surveillés. La peur est constante, surtout pour Emma qui doit à tout prix cacher l'existence de son jeune frère autiste.

La frontière entre les deux Républiques devient soudainement infranchissable, tout comme celle entre les deux vies d'Emma... " -- 4e de couvTroisième humanité: roman] / 1
