Science FictionSynopsis
Friday Jones is a genetically engineered "artificial person" — stronger, faster, and smarter than ordinary humans — working as a secret courier in a Balkanized 21st-century North America where nations have splintered into squabbling successor states. Navigating a world that despises her kind while concealing her enhanced nature, Friday must survive corporate intrigue, political upheaval, and the deeply personal struggle to find belonging.
