Description
In the near future, almost everyone uses the Collective, a biotech invention that allows anyone to upload their consciousness into the body of any other user on the network. Selene, however, grew up in a ludd community (people who refuse to join the Collective), and she's fought for years to separate herself from the stigma of that identity. So, when she joins the Collective and gets a prestigious job at City Hall, she hopes this is the first step toward her new future. Instead, she finds herself being dragged back to the world she so desperately wants to leave behind. Ludds have been disappearing around Capital City, and Selene is tasked with getting to the bottom of it. In order to do that, however, she must team up with her brother Leo, who's not only a ludd but proud of it. Together, the two must work out their differences in order to solve the mystery. But as they begin to dig into the disappearances, they stumble across a sinister plot-one that may very well put both the Collective and the ludds in grave danger.
