My Unknown Avenger
In Seattle, right before a globalized digital economy devoured the old world and grunge took its last gasps before falling off with the rest of the 20th century, Mona is raped and urinated on by a man she knows.
Her friends take vengeance by violating and humiliating Mona's rapist then blowing up a photo of his humiliation on a poster reading - Exoriare aliquis nostris ex ossibus ultor (May you arise from my bones, my unknown avenger. ––Virgil) that they put up around town. When a rash of copycat posters all over Seattle follows, it gets the attention of national news and the FBI.
