Jing is a thief, but she doesn’t steal crowns – she steals code. Living in the Mire, the industrial heartland of the City of Moreau, Jing and her best friend Guz accept a contract from a local broker to harvest code from a corporate archive, but things don’t quite go to plan.
Jing and Guz retrieve the code, but find themselves on the run, hunted not only by local enforcement, but by the Black Hearts – the secret police of Jacalyn Adelise Volais, Empress of the Thirteen Worlds. The situation becomes more complex with the arrival of the Daughters, a group of neural terrorists led by the mysterious Mother.
The stolen code isn’t what Jing expected – it appears to be a memory. In a world where memories are a commodity to be bought and sold, the question is – a memory of what? Or who? And more importantly, will Jing and Guz ever get paid?
