Abandoned as a baby and raised by a loving foster mother, Zena knows she is lucky.  In 2180 when the greedy ruling elite prefer using androids in the workplace to increase revenue, Zena still has a job. Working at a New York City bank, Zena manages to eke out a living.  Around the world, billions of people live in grinding poverty while the ruling elite hoard money in overflowing bank accounts. When Zena receives the devastating news that the bank will replace her with an android, her world falls apart.  With no job and no prospects, she wonders how she will ever fulfill her foster mother’s prophecy that she will do something important in the world.  Then one day, when Zena hits rock bottom, a chance encounter with a homeless man in a grocery store sparks an unexpected chain of events that turns her life and the rest of the world upside down.
