In Max Barry's scathing and darkly humorous vision of the future, tax has become obsolete, and the government operates as a privatized entity, with employees taking on corporate surnames. 'Jennifer Government' follows an ordinary man, Hack Nike, who inadvertently becomes embroiled in a diabolical marketing scheme involving a contract to boost sneaker sales through murder. His poor choice pits him against Jennifer Government, a tenacious agent with a barcode tattoo and a personal vendetta against the corporate overlords. Navigating a world where consumerism has reached its dystopian extreme, Hack and Jennifer dive into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, exposing the grotesque absurdities of a hyper-capitalistic society.
