Bem

Libra City is divided between wealthy districts and the impoverished Outside, where detective Sonia Summers has been transferred. Investigating a series of strange crimes brings her into contact with Bem, Bela, and Belo, three beings who take human form and fight to protect people from evil.

The trio hopes to become human, yet their actions do not shield them from fear and rejection. Criminal threats, prejudice, and powerful interests complicate every effort to help. As Sonia learns more about them, she must reconsider her assumptions, while the three continue seeking a place in a society that sees them as monsters.
