Plot summary[edit]
Decades in the future after a Great Sickness and runaway climate change have devastated human civilization and driven most life on Earth to extinction, thirteen-year-old Eli Papadopoulos lives in the artificial dome-city of Providence, in what was once Rhode Island. His grandfather founded the megacorporation InfiniCorp, which constructed the domes and now controls nearly all aspects of surviving civilization. Eli notices that all is not right in Providence; power failures and broken pieces of the dome roof falling are becoming more commonplace. All of a sudden, operatives from a dangerous band of terrorists keep contacting him. The Friends of Gustavo–or Foggers–want to tear down everything InfiniCorp has created. They promise Eli that they have the truth he seeks–if he's brave enough to handle it.
