Some stories are worth dying for.
Others people will kill to keep secret.
Investigative reporter Cecily Cool is chasing a story most journalists are smart enough to avoid.
When her boyfriend is killed in what authorities dismiss as gang crossfire, she refuses to believe it was just another casualty of Sector Ten's endless violence.
The deeper she digs, the stranger the story becomes.
Crime syndicates that should be at war begin acting with impossible coordination. Powerful people deny obvious truths. A feared crime boss offers unexpected help. And every answer pulls Cecily closer to a conspiracy reaching far beyond the streets she knows.
Fortunately, she isn't alone.

With wit, determination, and a talent for asking exactly the wrong people exactly the right questions, Cecily discovers that truth has a way of making dangerous enemies.
Because in Sector Ten...
the most dangerous story is always the one that's true.
COOL WORLD is a fast-paced science fiction adventure filled with memorable characters, sharp dialogue, grounded action, unexpected humor, and a heroine who discovers that courage isn't the absence of fear...
