The year is 2030. The newest revolution in technology is what Larry Page, the co-founder of Google, has dubbed “Total Immersion.”
This VR system instantly anesthetizes users and transports them into artificial worlds where near-reality and fantasy are constructed with perfection. Customers can pay for dinner withBrad Pitt or Marylin Monroe, threesomes with John Lennon and Emma Stone, or a weekend with a long-dead spouse—all constructed in such visceral detail that it’s impossible to separate from the truth until the TI system is powered off.
Detective Sam Knight, a renowned homicide investigator with a dark past, deeply familiar with the allure—and danger—of the all-too-real fantasies. He is partnered with bright-eyed rookie Tommy Fincher, and together they set out on a case more brutal and bizarre than anything they have ever seen before — in reality or illusion. As the mystery deepens and victims pile up, the hunt for the killer leads Sam and Tommy through surreal encounters and into the web of a cryptic, brilliant puppet master.
