Abstract

A city is in despair, rivers are dying, children have cancer. Vexcorp counts these lives an another expense on a balance sheet. But that is about to change. Malia is an activist who fiercely fights these atrocities. She's lost faith in the possibility of systematic reform. Dennis is a lawyer who believes that if enough people are informed, they will do the right thing. Eddie is a young street thug torn by grief over his sister's death. Larry Gordon is Vexcorp's CEO. Their lives converge in a tale of morality, survival, agency and despair.
