Custodians of the Future

"You are a vital component of Global Waste"went the company motivational email...
Irena wants to fit in, and she needs the job, so she goes with the flow and doesn't rock the boat.
But discovering strange, potentially deadly contents in Stockholm's wastewater sends her fellow janitor squad members off the rails. Their whacky assumptions and accusations lead to mayhem, threatening the lives and livelihoods of the innocent targets of their suspicions. Irena is caught between her integrity and her need for security.
It's New Year's Eve, 2099. Can Irena get to the bottom of the wastewater mystery while keeping her teammates from doing harm, staying out of prison, and avoiding the retributions of Luxembourger street vendors, Buddhist monks, and the dreaded Canadian Space Agency?
