Running from her small-town past, she dives headfirst into the bright lights and shadows of the California Confederacy, determined to build a future on her own terms-even if it means making her name in sensies, the immersive adult entertainment of the 22nd century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut the industry doesn't play fair. Neither does debt. When her dream of independence crumbles, Kendra signs a too-good-to-be-true contract with OutLook, a shadowy organization with secrets buried deeper than her own.

Instead, she sold them her future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrust into a brutal training program alongside other misfits and debtors, Kendra discovers she's not the only one being shaped into something useful. Or dangerous.
