Though isolated, Cassie is never alone. From her earliest memory, a miniature black hole has been her constant companion. It feeds on her depression and anxiety, its size changing in relation to her distress. The black hole watches, but it also waits. Its relentless pull draws Cassie ever-closer as the world around her unravels. When her CEO's demands cross an illegal threshold and she ends up unexpectedly pregnant, Cassie must decide whether the tempting fruits of Silicon Valley are really worth it."-- Book jacket. 0aInternet industryzCaliforniazSanta Clara Valley (Santa Clara County)vFiction. 0aAffective disordersvFiction. 0aNew business enterprisesxEmployeesvFiction.  0aSocial classesvFiction.  0aSuccessvFiction.  0aYoung womenvFiction.  0aSanta Clara Valley (Santa Clara County, Calif.)vFiction. 7aPsychological fiction.2lcgft
