    You worked for the machines. It should be the other way around, machines should be making our jobs easier, but no, we work for them.”Man 2.0. A sinister plan. Humanity lost?Would you trade your emotions against an eternal life?In a society ruled by a new generation of people who are more machine than human, where emotions are considered a weakness, 17-year-old Mia and her two-year younger brother Ben are left on their own after the death of their parents. While Mia takes a job to support them, Ben stays in school. On a day that begins like any other, there is talk of an attack. The target: Ben’s school. By the time Mia arrives, Ben has already been taken to an undisclosed location and Mia is not given any information about it. A stranger offers to help and, in her desperation, Mia accepts. He introduces her to a group of drop-outs, where Mia meets the witty and rebellious siblings Vi and Phil, who become allies in her search for her brother. Meanwhile Ben and his classmates are taken to a military base to be trained as soldiers. To fight who? Their own kind. With a system of punishment and reward, the students are manipulated to obey orders and even report on their friends.

When two of his favorite student players are recruited by an upstart Finnish soccer club owned by an eccentric tech billionaire with a secretive cognitive training program run by Dr. Anna Lehtinen, Eddie is suspicious of the motives but resists the urge to get involved. But when Benny Gilbert calls Eddie from Finland to let him know of some strange personality changes of Peter Borg, his best friend, Eddie’s fears are confirmed. Eddie finally jumps into action, but not before an enigmatic, Russian investor has targeted Peter as a star recruit for his own St. Petersburg soccer club. But there are other plans beyond sports for the neuroscience experiment now embedded into Peter’s head. Eddie and Anna must unite to save Peter before he is brainwashed into cooperating with a revengeful agenda. The action races from Minnesota to Finland to Russia and back home.
