Shock Induction

內容簡介

內容簡介 看似聲譽卓著的一所高中，最聰明優秀的學生接連失踪，每天都有成績優異的學生自殺。這一切背後，隱藏著可怕的真相。這些孩子從出生起便受到一個名為「綠色牧場」的線上服務監控和評估，這其實是億萬富翁們用來評估與招募新一代菁英的工具。考試分數最高、成績最好和最特別的課外活動，可能會讓這些青少年在拍賣中獲得一個誘人的報價。學生們必須選擇是要追尋個人的夢想，還是屈服在被金錢終身奴役的安全？他們真的擁有選擇權嗎？From the bestselling author of Fight Club comes a dark, satirical parable about a string of mysterious high school disappearances, the seedy underbellies of billionaires, and the tough choices we make in the face of an uncertain future.In Shock Induction, the best and brightest students at a seemingly reputable high school are disappearing. Every day it seems another overachiever is lost to an apparent suicide. But something far more sinister is lurking beneath the surface.These kids have been under surveillance since birth, monitored and measured by an online service called "Greener Pastures." It's here, in Greener Pastures, that billionaires observe and recruit the next generation of talent. The highest test scores, the best grades, and the most niche extracurriculars just might land these teenagers an enticing offer at auction. A couple billion dollars in exchange for the remainder of your life and intellectual labor sounds like a pretty fair deal-doesn't it?In a high school only Chuck Palahniuk could imagine, students must choose between the risk of following their dreams or the security of money and a lifetime of servitude to the world's wealthiest and most elite-but how much of a choice do they truly have?
