How do I erase my existence from the mind of God?
Grace, a civil servant with a sordid past, wakes up one morning to find that she's a viral sensation: her life has been hacked, woven into a lifestream, a full-immersion, 3-D, virtual reality experience. Knowing that she's powerless to keep thrill-seeking stream riders from reliving her life, fearing that her teenage son, Dylan, might stumble upon her explicit lifestream, Grace finds a shredder, an expert in the ways of the Worldstream, the infinitely detailed record of every event, person, and thing. He'll erase her lifestream and all of her data since the day she was born. Her life will be hers again, but she'll be outside of the Worldstream--and she can never go back.
