The year is 2035 and the world's emerging from a devastating economic collapse. Computer guru, Ladesque, finds her task of restoring the world's internet capabilities, dull until... She's approached by Paul, an attractive FBI agent intent on recruiting her to an ultra-secret project. There's only one problem-the asexuality she was born with thirty-five years ago, vanishes and she's left struggling with the unfamiliar power of libido.When everyone, from ungainly computer geek, Roach to handsome Paul, becomes appealing, Ladesque suspects the popular explanation for the female asexuality saddling her generation is a lie. Her suspicions increase when an encoded diary and whispered rumours link the affliction to conspiracy and murder. However, uncovering facts proves difficult in an age where hackers have corrupted all digital records.Putting her quest on hold, she joins Paul's project where her uncertainties are quickly overshadowed by the explosive technology and high-tech challenges of her job. Then, she receives her final assignment. She can either expose her mind to the potentially lethal quantum computer for the sake of the world or be forever a watched woman. She, alone, must assess the risk-a risk that just might reveal the truth about her past.
