    About this ebook

    A protest group calling itself Control Z has occupied Grant Park in downtown Chicago. Aimed at undoing social injustice, income inequality, sexism, and racism, this group has provoked a startling response from authorities. One anonymous protestor, B, is coerced into locating someone who appears to have inspired the movement: convicted killer and fugitive Alex Graves. Will she catch up to him before the authorities do? This is the fourth novella of the I AM MERCURY series.

    I AM MERCURY is a nine-part serial suspense thriller about visions of other worlds, the stories we tell ourselves, and the things we do for love. Each short novella in the series features a different narrator, a different lens through which to view the events of the series. After the riot at Yorkville State Pen, journalists and spies spar off, protestors march forward, and dangerous games play out. What do these interlocking stories mean for each other, and how will they coalesce?
