Changed

Over the next three days, Kelvin Wilson will be shot, hit by a car, and blow up a multi-million dollar building - and everyone he trusts will either die or betray him. The year is 2132. Oil is the past. America has fractured into regions where violence is rampant and legal and illegal drug use is common. Global warming and sea level rise have changed the planet and sent most of humanity to giant orbiting habitats. One of those left behind, 25-year-old Kelvin Wilson, works as a janitor for the giant Mahatsu Corporation, a global company involved in shipping and technology research. Kel is average in every way-except-in the last six months he's developed the unexplained ability to do increasingly complicated mathematics in his head, a photographic memory and, disturbingly-the apparent ability to slow time. When Kel is accidentally hit and knocked unconscious by a car, a scan of his brain reveals the source of his new abilities-miniature computer processors wired into his brain-technology that doesn't exist, and where they came from and how they got there is a mystery. When his best friend is murdered, Kel, a young woman whose scientist father was murdered for saving her life using the same technology, and the prototype experiment: a cat with near-human intelligence, must evade a private SWAT team and an obsessed cybenetically enhanced former soldier hunting them. With humanity's future hanging in the balance, the trio must discover why Kel was changed and stop those responsible from taking the next step.
