While I have you here! I've gone ahead and written a book, and there is a kickstarter running for it right now!
Built on the bones of a former northern England shipbuilding town, Unity City is an extraterritorial city-state fully owned and operated by worldwide megacorp Imperium International LLC. Renji Starkweather has everything he needs to succeed within Unity: confidence, a fast mouth, and most importantly, a famous aunt. But despite his coveted position within the city’s enforcers, restless Renji has never quite fit in with the company values, and when an impulsive stunt involving an airship and far too many bladed weapons sends him plummeting into Unity's buried depths, he begins to see the real human cost of those record profits.
Thrown into the path of a notorious gang of criminals named The Loose Ends, Renji is keen to help them even the score; and once an unfair gas bill threatens to leave the city's poorest freezing in their own homes, he finds himself with a chance to do just that. Teaming up with a gruff single dad on a mission, a laid-back hacker DJ, and her furious bruiser of a sister, Renji has a plan involving an audacious heist of tonight’s company Christmas fundraiser– but in order to pull it off, he’ll have to dodge his vicious former boss and avoid his terrifying aunt, all while gaining the trust of his new allies.
What could possibly go wrong…?

Oh no! All that water will ruin Eliza's notebook and destroy all those years of precious data! She does back it up, doesn't she?
What was Eliza about to say there? Does she recognize Thea from Lei and Vee's report on the events of Sea Change?
I'm guessing the papers would have had her picture, when she went "missing"....
And Eliza, being Eliza, would absolutely have taken note of that and kept the clipping for her files.
I love how Nicola's head whips around to check on her granddad as they all get swept off their feet by the water.
And all Eliza can think is "evidence for the 4th Anchor!"
Well! That wasn't supposed to happen! I hope everybody can swim and/or breathe underwater!
Oh no ! MY NOTES !!!
New achievement unlocked! Summon Scary Lady:
Kick the creepy door at a very wrong time.
A book! Kate, you need to stop making things I need in my life! I read the kickstarter and it has the distinction of being the first cyberpunk thing that I want to read! Well done!
...well this doesn't bode well
