In Kristen Landon's new book The Limit, we found out how one possible future deals with families who spend more money than they earn. Matt and his family seem to be always buying things, but one day on an ordinary shopping trip, they find that they are over their limit. At home they learn the consequence -- Matt is taken away from his family and put in a workhouse until his family can reduce their debt under the limit. At first things at the workhouse seem pretty good. Matt, a math and computer genius, tests to the top floor where he is challenged to do computer work for various companies along with keeping up his computerized school curriculum. Top floor residents can order anything they want -- food, clothes, things. However, Matt soon realizes that something is very wrong. Some kids get terrible headaches or are removed from the top floor. Matt finds that he cannot get any e-mails from home or even leave the top floor. Can Matt discover what is really happening in the workhouse and help his family get out of debt?
