From award-winning author Sarah Pinsker comes a novel about one
family and the technology that divides them.Get one - or get left
behind. Val and Julie just want what's best for their kids, David
and Sophie. So when David comes home from school begging for a new
brain implant to help with his studies, they're torn. Julie grew up
poor and knows what it's like to be the only kid in school without
the new technology, but Val is terrified by the risks and the
implications. Soon, everyone at Julie's work has the implant and
she's struggling to keep pace. It's clear that she'll have to get
one too if she's not to be left behind. Before long, Val and Sophie
are the only two in the family without the device, and part of an
ever-shrinking minority in their town. With government subsidies
and no apparent downside, why would anyone refuse? But Sophie can't
shake the feeling that something sinister is going on behind the
scenes and she's going to do whatever it takes to find out - even
if it pits her against a powerful tech company and the people she
loves most.
