Brenna's soul mate is missing, but finding him is hard when she can't stop channeling the Internet. Gale tries to help, but she's got her own problems and her printer's out of toner. Both women, an anti-Tech cult, the FBI, and the Internet itself will be involved before its over, and the city will never be the same. An explosive comedy that explores how we connect when we're disconnected.
