This short story directly follows the events in Exit Strategy and is told from the point of view of Dr. Mensah, who is still recovering from the events of that novella.

The short story was offered to people who pre-ordered Network Effect by Macmillan Publishing and was also available via the Short Story Club. The author has said on her website that it will be included in the trade paperback of Network Effect. It is available for purchase as a single short story in Kindle format via Amazon.
