Packet Trade - Paperback

by Darusha Wehm (Author)

Tropical adventures. A rag-tag sailing crew. Running off-grid data servers? Sounds legit.Devi Jones is a year away from graduating with a Computer Science degree and it's internship time. But usually the ship part isn't quite so literal. She gets hired by Really Remote Desktop, a cloud data storage company that keeps their servers in odd places, like the bilge of a hundred-foot sailboat. How can a homebody like Devi step on to a boat with six strangers and sail away from everything she has ever known? All while trying to do her best at her first real job? Being in a tropical paradise helps - but only until things start to go wrong.
