    In a galaxy where the ruling class listens to everyone's thoughts, the only way Thomas can survive and rescue his enslaved friends is to trick his crowd-pleasing mentor--plus her thirty trillion fans.

    In a galaxy-spanning utopia where the rulers are networked together for instant communication, nothing goes unnoticed.

    There’s no crime. No secrets. No privacy. And no way to escape.

    Until Thomas unintentionally captivates a top influencer. If he’s going to help his enslaved friends, he’ll need to trick her… plus her audience of thirty trillion followers.

    And so Thomas’s galactic conquest begins.

    Elise Morley is an expert on the past who's about to get a crash course in the future.

    For years, Elise has been donning corsets, sneaking into castles, and lying through her teeth to enforce the Place in Time Travel Agency's 10 essential rules of time travel. Someone has to ensure that travel to the past isn't abused, and most days she welcomes the challenge of tracking down and retrieving clients who have run into trouble on their historical vacations.

    But when a dangerous secret organization kidnaps her and coerces her into jumping to the future on a high-stakes assignment, she's got more to worry about than just the time-space continuum. For the first time ever, she's the one out-of-date, out of place, and quickly running out of time.

    No one can be trusted and nothing is real Ender’s Game meets The Matrix in this mind-bending debut sci-fi thriller from Nebula Award-nominated author Jake Kerr.

    In a near future of decaying cities and gray skies everyone has escaped to the wondrous life of virtual reality.

    Including the criminals.

    And the most dangerous criminal in the world is Sunday, the leader of the terrorist group the Order of Days, whose sole mission is to destroy the false paradise of VR and return people to the land of reality.

    While on a simple reconnaissance job, young FBI agent Gabby Kane stumbles upon Saturday, a key member of the Order of Days. Kane brashly tries to single-handedly capture the terrorist, only to mess everything up in the process. She not only allows Saturday to escape, but she also seriously injures her own neural connection to virtual reality, a critical requirement for an undercover agent. With her career in jeopardy, Gabby agrees to an impossible mission: Infiltrate the Order of Days as Thursday and kill the mysterious Sunday.

    Deep undercover and chased by the police and FBI while getting closer to uncovering the Order of Days, Gabby finds herself in increasing danger and without allies. But do enemies and allies even exist when no one can be trusted and nothing is real?
