Hacked Into The Game by Saul Tanpepper

The year is 2043, years after a horrific outbreak turned Long Island into an apocalyptic wasteland. The dead about to escape.

Hacker Jessie Daniels marches to the beat of a different drummer. Daughter of the man who created the vilified Reanimation technology, she’s had no choice. For the tough-as-nails hapkido black belt, it’s fight back or be eaten alive. Literally.

A powerful entertainment company has turned the tech into a lucrative gaming empire with Long Island a live-action playground for the rich, the dead as their avatars. Jessie wants to tear the whole thing down.

Breaking into the arcade is embarrassingly easy. But now, trapped inside fifty-foot walls, cut off from the world and hounded by mysterious villains who kill for sport, her adventure turns into a deadly struggle to survive.

But in Gameland, dying doesn’t end the game, it’s just another way to level up.
