In the Nevada desert, in the near future, a brilliant biologist and single mother named Naomi Chiang sets off a chain reaction that threatens to bring the networked world to its knees. When her seventeen-year-old son, Colt, who spends most of his time in the comfort of virtual reality, secretly releases her latest findings-a process for regrowing human tissue-Colt's estranged father crashes into their lives again, backed by the secretive security organization he heads. The U.S. government wants Naomi's research . . . and her son, who must leave the virtual sphere to discover the pleasures-and pains-of a life fully lived. Page-turning and thought-provoking, Connect is a whip-smart novel that explores what connection-both human and otherwise-might be in a digital age. It is a story of mothers and sons; but it is also about you, your phone, and the world to come.
