Scavenger — Meyari McFarland

Noa's life revolved around scavenging for valuables left behind when global warming melted the ice caps and flooded Seattle. Her little nest in the Web was all she had other than her flipper and the precious cybernetic mods her Ma had gotten her. It was a hard life but all that Noa knew. One day, a month or so after a drift-ship nearly ran into the Web's support struts, Noa explored somewhere new. What she found threatened to either end her life or transform it forever. Unfortunately, the only person she could call on for help was War Tooth, military outcast cyborg orca from the local pod. Without his assistance Noa's one chance at a better life might drift away before she had a chance to catch it. Scavenger is an exciting cyberpunk story of survival, hope and the bonds that can form at the margins of society.
