A terrifying glimpse into a future where humanity can be 'improved' by technology and corporations govern. Robert Gordon spins a cautionary tale about the increasing omnipotence of corporations and an endless appetite for pushing the boundaries of technology. - Elizabeth Karr, Producer of Radio Free Albemuth
Welcome to Caldera, the corporate enclave in international waters where cutting-edge research meets employee utopia. As Sentivue Industries prepares their new flagship product - a neural interface that connects the user to the collective knowledge of the ages - Jared Elsworth is tasked with ensuring a smooth and successful launch. But with winter setting in and many of its residents preparing to leave, something doesn't seem right. People are acting strangely, and the citycorp begins to take on a much darker and more violent tone. Is the interface causing the changes, or is somebody pulling the strings? When isolation is the key to corporate sovereignty, how do you overcome a sinister force that has taken control?
