In the 35th century, catastrophic overpopulation forces Earth’s authoritarian government, the Organic Commonwealth, to divide humanity across the days of the week. Under this rigid system, every citizen is permitted to live for only one day out of seven, spending the remaining six days “stoned” in suspended animation while another segment of the population wakes up to take their place. Each day of the week operates as a distinct society with its own culture, fashion, and history, strictly policed to prevent anyone from crossing over into another day.
Jeff Caird is a secret operative for the Immers, an underground rebel network working to reform the oppressive regime from within. As a “daybreaker,” Jeff illegally avoids suspended animation and remains awake all seven days of the week, acting as a courier between the isolated daily worlds. To survive without detection, he maintains seven entirely separate lives, complete with different jobs, friends, wives, and distinct psychological identities.
However, the immense mental strain of juggling seven personalities begins to fracture Jeff’s mind, turning him into a dangerous liability for both the rebels and the state. Hunted by the ruthless government authorities who execute daybreakers on sight—and targeted for elimination by his own allies—Jeff must go on the run, fighting to reclaim his fractured psyche and uncover the dark secrets holding the Dayworld system together.
