Welcome to the sci-fi worlds of brainy teen heroines who hack not just computers, but whatever puzzles come their way.

A teen inventor creates a weapon to battle the mysterious beasts attacking her city. A superhero-in-training puts her skills to the test when attackers strike her compound. A self-styled detective hacks an augmented reality game to solve a dastardly crime. Girls who code, explore, fix robots, pilot starships, invent gadgets, build high-tech treehouses, and more. With tales ranging from space adventures to steampunk to cyberpunk and more this 23-story collection will delight, thrill, and enthrall. (Barnes and Noble)

​Included is my short story: The Experiment Called Life. 

The device 16-year-old Gemma Jones creates to control her Tourette's tics is her greatest invention yet. But it's the experiment she's subjected to that gives her a new perspective on life.
