A science fiction thriller about a female gamer fighting back against a malicious hacker who threatens the players of a massively multiplayer online game, the novel draws on Davis's experiences playing online games.

In 2014, 2015 and 2016, Davis was a speaker at several Wizard World comic conventions, where she organized and participated in panel discussions.
