In the domed city of New Seattle, where personal brand is everything, she’s struggling to make her mark. Life here revolves around the People List, a weekly ranking of social capital. At the top? The coveted number-one spot, held for years by Delilah, a charismatic stage actress and Scottie’s boss. Outside of work, Scottie dreams of a forbidden romance, confiding only in Cece, her AI brain chip. But when she finally grabs the spotlight, it’s for all the wrong reasons: Delilah plunges from her balcony, and Scottie is blamed for the deadly accident. Convinced it was murder and that she’s been framed, Scottie knows time is running out. The People List updates in six days. If she lands in last place, she’ll face banishment to the frozen wasteland beyond the dome. To clear her name and escape exile, Scottie must solve Delilah’s murder. But unmasking a killer is a dangerous game. It could make her the hero of New Seattle—or the next to die.
