Buy on: lulu.com Warning: not intended for children Jane Whitmore suffered a terrible injury when she was young that left her paralyzed from the waist down. She adapted. As a full adult, Jane witnesses a manager harassing a subordinate and HR sides with the manager after the harassed coworker backs out, leaving Jane looking like a liar. She's summarily dismissed, and blackballed in every major employer in Seattle and its surrounding suburbs. She adapted. But, after having a heck of a time getting on disability, while trying to cover her mounting expenses with her dwindling resources, Ellie comes up with a -- diversion. Ellie does her best to convince Jane that becoming a superhero herself, with the help of a mechanized suit, Jane can take out her frustrations of the injustices around them on the unjust people around them. She-- considered. And then accepted. Around then, the Seattle Police Department began investigating a series of strange domestic terror incidents around the city involving people who have undergone surgery to replace body parts with mechanical counterparts; people who, rather than be taken into custody, explode. But, perhaps, not willingly-- as their screams might suggest. The Host of Heroes-- the only superhero contracting agency permitted by congress to employ superhumans and allow them to openly use their powers-- insists that finding the identity of this new 'Nemesis' vigilante, and not the source of the mechanical mercenaries, should be the SPD's top priority. With both the SPD and the Host of Heroes after her, Jane's 'diversion' winds up inviting a lot more trouble than she'd intended. And, it turns out, that's just the start of her problems.
