Located off China's southeastern coast, Silicon Isle is the global capital for electronic waste recycling, where thousands like Mimi toil day and night, hoping one day they too will enjoy the wealth they've created for their employers, the three clans who have ruled the isle for generations. Luo Jincheng is the head of one of these clans, a role passed down from his father and grandfather before him. As the government enforces tighter restrictions, Luo in turn tightens the reins on the waste workers in his employ. Ruthlessness is his means of survival. Scott Brandle has come to Silicon Isle representing TerraGreen Recycling, an American corporation that stands to earn ungodly sums if they can reach a deal to modernize the island's recycling process. Chen Kaizong, a Chinese American, travels to Silicon Isle as Scott's interpreter. There, Kaizong is hoping to find his heritage, but finds more questions instead. The home he longs for may not exist. As these forces collide, a dark futuristic virus is unleashed on the island, and war erupts between the rich and the poor; between Chinese tradition and American ambition; between humanity's past and its future"-- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Science Fiction Chen Science Fiction Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Science Fiction Chen   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Science Fiction Qiufan wd/pd Damaged Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Chen   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Science Fiction Chen   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Chen   Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Science Fiction Chen   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Chen   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
