LYDIA CALLIGAN WAS ONCE THE DOYENNE OF SAN FRANCISCO ADVERTISING ... until a social media misstep destroyed her agency, her reputation, and her life. Now in self-imposed exile, she's offered a dubious comeback gig: spruce up the image for a home-goods fulfillment center in rural Colorado. Together with her assistant Paul -- whose good looks but loud mouth seem to repel every guy he meets -- they discover some strange goings-on in a strangely manufactured town. And when a healthy young man drops dead inside the center, the company's shadowy president implores Lydia to find out exactly what happened. With her career and identity on the line, she must try to summon back the strengths she once commanded to solve a curious puzzle inside this big box.
Not really a murder mystery -- though it turns into one - Fulfillment City is a story of young people searching for meaning in the modern world of automated work, and older people who came of age in a former world trying to find equilibrium in a rapidly changing new one.
