Nano #1

Sana is a bad-ass operative of the underground organization The Order. She and her longtime comrade, Lukas, have been assigned to Nano, a mega-city run on prison labor and roiling from blackouts. While Lukas is tasked with infiltrating Nanocorp's secretive research facility, Sana's mission is something she's never trained for: playing the doting wife of Lukas's cover. In her guise as a middle school P.E. teacher, she's forced to cool her jets and teach 8th graders stretching, while Lukas puts himself in danger. But when the signs are unmistakable and Lukas's mission is clearly going sideways, Sana can no longer sit on the bench.
