How much of ourselves are we putting online?
London- A teenager is shot dead after chasing a criminal in the street. Investigating journalist Cynthia Bonsant is led to the popular social media platform Freemee, a competitor to Facebook whose app claims to enhance and improve the lives of millions of its users.
But there is one group that warns against its evils- ZERO, the world’s most-wanted activist, known for his viral videos speaking out against the loss of privacy in the digital age, growing data theft at government level and the rising number of teenage suicides.
As Cynthia gets closer to unravelling the evil mastermind behind the Freemee site, she herself becomes a target, and runs for her life into the sewers. But in this world of surveillance cameras, data glasses and intelligent smart phones there is nowhere to hide . . .
