In an utopian society, only the
elite are deemed worthy to live under the World Union banner - the smartest,
healthiest, and wealthiest. Prosperity is a science, sex is entertainment, disease
and capital crime are non-existent, and the future has never looked better. But
beneath a perfect world lies an unspeakable truth. That truth is ready to surface.
A World Union citizen is murdered in Russia, one of the few remaining Rogue States.
This murder oddly coincides with the accidental death of a prominent professor in
Adrianopolis, an important border town between the World Union and Russia. Peace
Officer Phoenix Wallis is assigned to lead the investigation of the murder. Still
young and inexperienced, she will soon make discoveries beyond her wildest
imagination, as skilled hackers and subversive characters begin taking an inexplicable
interest in Phoenix. Her investigation reveals enigmatic clues that lead her deeper
and deeper into a mystery that challenges not only her case, but her very beliefs
in the worldview she has sworn to protect.
