Jennifer Government
MAX BARRY (Doubleday, January 2003) The world is run by giant American corporations; taxes are illegal; employees take the last names of the companies they work for. In this novel, a Nike marketing plot to shoot teenagers in order to build “street cred” for their new line of sneakers goes terribly awry. Jennifer Government is put on the case with a mission of vengeance for the Nike executive who wronged her years ago.
