This has to be one of the worst scifi books I've read in a while.

Premise
>in THE FUTURE America has been reduced to a bunch of the burbclaves from Snow Crash and imports Chinese people to labor for them, dystopian society, the rest of the country is lawless, etc etc
>The boyfriend of a Chinese girl at a fish farm in Baltimore gets kidnapped by the corporations, she sets off in search of him

Actuality
>One dimensional main character leaves the city, gets hit by a car, spends some time recovering with the family of the country doctor who ran her over, then gets kidnapped by crazy cat lady who now keeps girls like pets because pets got banned in the burbclaves, THEN THE BOOK ENDS

So much wasted potential.
