For 15 years Mistletoe has lived in “Little Saigon” amid the lowest of classes in the sub canopy. One day she witnesses the death of both her guardians as they are trying to save Ambrose from top side who is the wealthy heir to Unison.

Imagine living your life under Unison -- a huge social network that can read and understand you and then run your life so you will always be happy.

Ambrose’s dad created this network and Ambrose is next in line to run it. But after being in the sub canopy and learning more about his dad and Unison, Ambrose is going to do whatever he can to stop his dad from launching Unison 3.0.

Ambrose and Mistletoe are now on the run for their lives. They both have been having the same bizarre dreams that really were memories of how they were created and who they really are. They soon realize they are the products of a horrendous genetic experiment for Unison.

Mistletoe works toward learning everything she can about their origin while Ambrose fights his father and his launch of Unison 3.0.They both do this while being on the run from the people who want to capture them and bring them into Unison and to Ambrose’s father. As all of this drama unfolds, an unlikely friendship is formed between Mistletoe and Ambrose.

This could be just a single book but the ending is done in a way that it could also be the start of a series. 232 pages
