HE MUST TAKE ON CORPORATE WAR TO BRING A COUNTRY PEACEForget the way your country used to look - the climate has collapsed and the seas have risen. With an oppressive government finally overthrown, the big tech companies are taking over the economy once more, and possess all the best hardware.
In this world, Greg Mandel is an invaluable asset - a psychically boosted private eye, carrying state-of-the-art weaponry. He's also ex-military, from the English Army's Mindstar Battalion.
Mandel is hired by Event Horizon to investigate industrial espionage - but events escalate. As cartels battle to control a revolutionary new power source, corporate greed outstrips national security. And when tensions mount to boiling point, Greg Mandel's latest case may be his last.
