Data Nexus

Sloan's goals were simple.

Raise her status and stay alive.

Now, she's going to lose everything.

Freedom was a word Sloan had heard echo throughout Technohaven's districts. However, it was an idea that most of the city's citizens couldn't comprehend. Between manipulative automatons and limited digital currency, there was no room for growth—for life.

With no other choice, sisters Sloan and Maya Delaney had to cheat their way into the upper district—a place of opportunity and, most of all, hope.

Hidden within the city's elite borders, they were safe. Their past would remain in the past so long as they didn't slip up. Didn't take more than they were given. Accepted the regime's word as law.

But, in a world of hidden codes, answers only lead to more questions...
