Kimberly Trayne has no time for the past. She's a free woman now. There are family reunions to avoid, realm championships to win, and an AI-human hybrid in her life. Or not. It's complicated.

What she doesn't know is that behind the Great Firewall of China there are secrets. Secrets about who lives there. Secrets about who dies. Secrets of power and control.

Secrets people will kill to keep.
