The Shift

Tina lives in Nycla, a planet wide megalopolis of 12 trillion people, who all work and play in three strictly defined shifts: the Work Shift, the Play Shift and the Rest Shift, each taking eight hours with a short transition time in between. Once Tina’s Rest is interrupted for an unknown reason − perhaps it was only a computational glitch − and she wakes up in a different world just to find out about the hoax, which controls her overpopulated planet.
