Orphaned by age ten, she was raised by her grandmother in Los Angeles, a mythologized and fragmented city, also known as a ground zero for the virus and its destruction.

Chasing this idea through anecdotes, TV shows, scientific papers, Wikipedia entries, and Internet history, McCalden forms a synaptic experience of what happened to her family, one that leads to an unexpected discovery about who her parents might have been.
