Ultraviolet

by J.R. Lewis

In Carmen Zhao's dystopian Baltimore, the invention of the personal 3D printer allows everyone to make anything they want, from designer clothes to high-end electronics, right in their own homes. But this has left the city torn between the wealthy elite and the masses forced to work in massive scrap heaps and recycling plants. Luckily, Carmen was on her way to a better life with a rare college education and a plush office job ...until she got fired. Down but not out, Carmen invents something of her solid holograms. With a high-tech suit that can turn ordinary light into extraordinary machines and weapons, she takes to the streets as the vigilante called Ultraviolet, protecting her family and friends from spying drones and company thugs, and living on the run with the help of a handsome new friend. But when she sees how far the megacorps are willing to go to take away everyone's freedoms, Carmen leads a revolution that will change her world forever.
