From Dan Wells, author of the New York Times bestselling Partials Sequence, comes the first book in a new sci-fi-noir series set in 2050 Los Angeles, starring an unforgettable heroine, Marisa Carneseca. Marisa Carneseca lives in Mirador, a vibrant neighborbood in the middle of the sprawling metropolis that is Los Angeles. Half, the time, anyway. The other half of her live is lived in online-a simple thing when virtually everyone has a djinni-an implant that allows them to connect to the internet anytime, anywhere, with nothing more than a thought. This makes things easy for someone like Sahara, Mari's best friend, who live streams her entire life for her online following. Welcome to 2050 LA. It's at a party at her friend Anja's house where Mari first encounters bluescreen: a digital drug that can plug directly into a djinni, overloading a person's sensory feeds to induce a hallucinogenic trip. But bluescreen isn't as innocent fun as it seems to be, and soon Mari finds herself in the middle of a conspiracy, caught between Mirador's criminal underworld and some of LA's most powerful people.
