Hacking the Sun - The Re-Remake
Jessica Leibniz tried to be a normal teenager, but unlike most teenagers in the 22nd century, she can tell time without a clock. So what good is a watch... unless it comes with incriminating A.I?

Eden: a modern megapolis. Jessica has learned to embrace Eden and its challenges. Without a cause, she confides in three friends or smacks into boredom.

Faced with conspiracy, tragedy, and a new life on the run, normal is no longer an option.Complete
