Hacker gets in trouble in a realistic future dystopia.

Jess, 14, is about to start school - everyone her age is - because until now they’ve had to learn online, at home. She’s going with a secret: a danger that could get her whole family deleted in a couple of clicks. Jess is a hacker who has an online hacker friend.

Chillingly close to reality in the wake of Covid-19, this book presents a future entrenched in an obligatory social media system. It's a system where the cost of essential and luxury supplies fluctuate by need and can easily lead to poverty.

This is an excellent read for #overcomingobstacles, challenging #socialmedia and exploring #poverty.
