In a corporate-dominated future where status means far more than surviving, Iris Miller finds herself willing to do just about anything to prove herself to her superiors. A grey, smog filled world where your rank on a corporate ladder offers protection from the sight of suffering and poverty. The elite wear blinding glasses, augmented lenses that erase tragedy from their view. The higher you climb, the less you have to see and the less empathy you feel. Iris is desperate to achieve such status; to be completely removed from the wretchedness of this late stage capitalist society. What lengths will she go to in order to prove she's got what it takes?
