The stunning second volume of the dystopian satire of alien immigration cops. North America, 2045. The Global Exo Segregation Zone (aka the 'Grey Area') is a huge holding area in Arizona housing aliens hoping to visit earth: The only thing standing in the way of chaos is the Exo Transfer Control squads: E.T.C.

Not to mention a dizzyingly colossal god star is descending on Earth, and Bulliet's team are the ones suiting up to meet 'n' greet the second coming. But they might end up going further than they expect...
