In a near future where almost everyone on earth is connected to a worldwide net, Jasmine Reese discovers the existence of an intelligence called Gestalt – a self-aware entity generated by the collected consciousness of eight billion networked people. And only Jaz can stop it from controlling the world.

"Mitchell is a rare author – as equally deft with special relativity and biochemistry as she is with sculpting real characters and delivering a ripping good read." (Eric S. Nylund, author of A Signal Shattered)
