Review Summary
Tech and Marz are two teenage orphans living in New York City in the not-so-distant future. In a world of sophisticated virtual reality, Tech and Marz are expert hackers, chasing down information that's gone missing on the network. But on a routine run, they encounter trouble in the form of a creature they've never seen before, leaving them determined to find out the truth - a truth buried in a sophisticated computer system.
Rebecca Herman, Resident Scholar
