In the quickly approaching future, corporations have become successful in complete global privatization. With an irrelevant government, corporate law attempts to maintain social order amongst a shallow population that has defined itself with drug use, prostitution and hedonistic consumerism. When citizens fail to meet company expectations, they are removed by corporate killers known as Triggers. Despite the chaos surrounding removals, Ivory Mother and the three think tanks have created a world that is seemingly stable and sterile; however, reality and appearances are in constant conflict and flux. Rufus Baxter is a citizen of this world and holds close to the immaculate state. His recent promotion and employment reassignment confirm opportunity is available for those who contribute to the global net worth and the glory of the corporations. However, when the consistency of truth that binds him is fragmented, he finds his perfect existence tortuous to endure. Doubt begins to grow, and as Rufus struggles with his disillusionment and substance abuse, the world around him begins to mutate into something exceedingly nefarious.
