The ‘Circuit’ control everything…even memories.

Jake Montana waits anxiously for the letter every eighteen-year-old receives on Ascension Eve. It’s the one from the Circuit. It’s the one that determines the rest of your life. Your partner, job, home, and crucially, your importance factor. In the year 2054 your ‘importance factor’ is everything, but it’s not random. It’s based on a detailed assessment of every thought, emotion and memory you’ve ever stored in your Memory Cloud since the day you received the first implants. Your fate, the Circuit insists, is always yours.
