Ben Cheng used to live the good life—he had wealthy parents, lots of friends, and respect as an online gamer. But when his parents separate, Ben’s life changes entirely. He moves to a small apartment with his mom, his dad is out of the picture, and his new schoolmates start teasing him for his family’s fall from grace. All Ben has left is his virtual life, where he still reigns supreme as an online racing driver. But when Ben takes his mom’s car out for a joyride and gets caught, and uses his mom’s credit card without permission, his life starts to spin out.
