Short description

Sulan, a sixteen-year-old math prodigy, leads a protected life. She attends the corporate-sponsored Virtual High School, an academy in Vex (Virtual Experience) for gifted children. When she witnesses the public execution of a teenage student, she realizes math won't protect her if she's on the wrong end of a gun. Defying her parents, she sets out to learn to protect herself.

Extended description

Sixteen-year-old Sulan Hom can't remember life before the Default--the day the United States government declared bankruptcy. As a math prodigy, she leads a protected life, kept safe from the hunger and crime plaguing the streets of America. She attends the corporate-sponsored Virtual High School, an academy in Vex (Virtual Experience) for gifted children.

Beyond the security of Sulan's high-tech world, the Anti-American League wages a guerrilla war against the United States. Their leader, Imugi, is dedicated to undermining the nation's reconstruction attempts. He attacks anything considered a national resource, including corporations, food storage facilities--and schools. Sulan witnesses the public execution of a teenage student and determines she must learn to defend herself. When her mother, a retired mercenary, refuses to help, Sulan takes matters into her own hands.
