In the virtual world of Saga, Ghost is a fifteen-year-old, anarcho-punk airboarder, with no past and no memories, only a growing realisation of her own extraordinary abilities. But who is she really? Why is she becoming embroiled in a battle with the sinister ruler of Saga—the Dark Queen?

And what happens if Ghost dares to reach into such a world, or to delve too deeply in search of her identity? Will that lead to liberation? Or madness, death and destruction?
