In the year 2098, there are no longer countries. Instead, the world is ruled by the Enclave, made up of the heads of each of the twelve Mega-Corporations, as well as the head of the only remaining authorized religion, the Universal Transcendental Congregation. Law still exists, but real justice is hard to come by. And if you make waves, do something to upset business, or display abilities the Corporations didn’t provide, then your time in this world is usually brief.
Frank Cole is an anomaly. He is a man of true faith, but the Enclave tolerates him because he's a private investigator who gets results. Between his training and his uncanny mysterious abilities, he is often the last hope for the everyday people who live under the yoke of the MegaCorps.
These days, while he still works to get justice for people who need it, a six month old case haunts him. He goes back to it, time and again. He is powerfully drawn to his own memories, both as recorded on the Meta, as well as revealed by his strange power.
At the same time, on the other side of the world, an odd love story begins to play out. Through the meddling of a malfunctioning Virtual Intelligence, two broken people become entangled, sharing their senses and gifts in a way that binds them irrevocably together.
When Frank finally gets a break in his old case, the answers he begins to uncover reach beyond simple kidnapping all the way to the very top of the Corporate ladder. What he finds could very well shake not just the physical world, but the fabric of reality itself.
To survive, and maybe get a little redemption, Frank will have to rely on old friends, relearn the meaning of faith, and two lovers separated by time and space will have to find a way to cross the distance between them.
