Summary
It's the 1980's. In England, Margaret Thatcher is Prime Minister. The economy's tanking, and the unions are under attack.
The people are poor, the people are pissed, and the people are punk.
Well, not Jemma Simmons - at least, not openly. Into her second Ph.D, her education funded by her overbearing father, an executive at Roxxon Corporation, Jemma still plans to fight the system, just...quietly. Until her Ph.D is done. Not that her father knows that, of course.
Making it harder is her brother, Lance, and his newly-formed punk band. Worse still for Jemma's good girl plans? Lance's drummer, a Scottish drop-out who just happens to be the most brilliant engineer Jemma has ever met, and just the person she needs to help her get her prototype off the ground...just so long as her father doesn't find out.
