[edit] Plot
Kayla, the teenage heroine of The Bar Code Tattoo, is back. She is a member of a small group of rebels who refuse to receive the government's bar code identification tattoos. During a march on Washington in which many of the protestors are captured, Kayla manages to escape. On the run and not knowing who she can trust Kayla is beset by seeing alternate visions of herself in the media. One seems to be a spokesperson on television saying how wonderful life with the tattoo is. Kayla believes it is a computer enhanced, altered image of herself. Life is increasingly difficult without the bar codes, but Kayla meets many who are still aggressively resisting the government mandate. Kayla decides to stay involved with a seemingly growing network of resistance that is actively working to bring down those requiring the tattoo.
