The Code Writer L C Huntsman

Janet Andrews (a.k.a. Tinker Belle) has a unique gift; she understands the binary language of 1's and 0's, she's an infamous code writer. However, that gift comes with a steep price, she is naive to the nuances of social life, and is an easy mark for unscrupulous people. Her first venture beyond the safety of home was college, that ended in disaster and almost cost her life. It was a shadowy black ops group known as the Sentinels who rescued her, became her family, and encouraged her to use her coding skills to help maintain the scales of justice, no matter the cost. Even though her supercomputer gives her a portal into the lives of any electronically connected person or entity world-wide, she struggles to find answers in her personal life: who should she let into her private world; how truthfully should she answer their questions and share her hidden desires; and even more thought provoking - is she living life according to her rules or society's? Most know the proverb: "Curiosity killed the cat," but few know the second part, "Satisfaction brought it back." Tinker knew and was willing to take the risk.
