    About this ebook

    In Brooklyn in the year 2147, amateur PI Stella Grady is offered a job in the exotic Four Quarters of Imagination; it's a vacation spot where the rich and powerful can live out their wildest fantasies. The poor are the extras hired to fill roles in their storylines, their words, their lives and their deaths can all be scripted for a price. Stella has been warned never to sell herself, but her back is against a wall; her adoptive family are in crisis ahead of the year's taxes. If they can't pay, their children will be requisitioned and sold to plantations or sweatshops in the south to pay down the debt. So she takes a job hunting a fugitive through the Quarters, not knowing if he's a rogue 'story-jumper', a radical human rights activist, or just a hardened cop from her own 83rd precinct on a mission to rescue his sister. Her reward is for bringing him in, and he'll let her if she'll first work with him to expose the human trafficking ring beneath the world's shiny surface.
    Book One of the Four Quarters of Imagination Trilogy.

    Lumen Reese

    Writer of diverse science fiction, fantasy and contemporary fiction from Michigan. I failed many math classes in high school to write first drafts of the books published here. It was worth it.I think that a story should be entertaining, but should handle important social and class issues in order to be an accurate portrayal of our world. I value honest resolution over shock-value, and happy endings wherever possible, especially for my LGBT characters. The central theme in all of my books is the moral responsibility that we all have to each other, and especially to the most vulnerable in our society.Fuck Elon Musk.

Available as an ebook.)THE UNDESIRABLES is a WWII THRILLER.(Out now! Available as an ebook.)ROMANI and ROMANI: AMBASSADORS were the first two parts of a trilogy that I started when I was seventeen. At the time, I intended to bring awareness to an underrepresented and much maligned group, in a story about how the privileged in our society have a moral responsibility to help the less fortunate. I have since decided that I did not have the right to be telling that story, and have unpublished both books.
