About this ebook
Set in the year 2257, this novel follows the journey of Chantel Wild, a relatively ordinary technical engineer who works for the largest and most powerful global corporation on the planet, Pangaea. Chantel has a chip embedded in her head, upon which she can download the latest forms of entertainment. Chantel chooses to download a movie entitled Soul from a Pangaea download station. When she loads up Soul on her hologram viewer she finds a glitch on the download that shows her images of dark-skinned pureblood people mindlessly encircling a massive contraption. Intrigued, she enlists the help of her friend Beren Marley, a convicted hacker who had previously been paralysed in an automobile chase from the global police. Immediately upon viewing the footage, Beren is set for adventure. He convinces Chantel to travel to the other side of the world to the city of Freetown, where the coordinates suggest that the footage was taken. They are referred to the courageous Captain Julie to transport them across the seas on the rickety boat, the Saharan. On the way, the Saharan is attacked by the pirate ship Kazaa, a behemoth of a vessel spearheaded by the ferocious Captain Condor. Condor extracts Chantel’s intellectual property from her chip and inadvertently copies a version of the glitch. His Auntie Jane then discovers the glitch and is intrigued by the purebloods featured on the footage. She insists on travelling to the wasteland zone to visit a man who leads them to the source of the glitch in Freetown. There they learn that the footage displays the most horrendous evil perpetrated upon people in history – slavery. A shocked Chantel and Beren then travel to Shanghai to report the crimes being committed in Freetown and discover more than they expected to about the people in power.
