| dc.description.abstract | Decades from now, in an era of customized realities, billionaire Luton Maxwell—inventor of the psycho-invasive, mind-augmenting Maxwell Patch—is under Congressional investigation for ethics and human rights violations. Indeed, everyone is after Time Magazine’s most hated man on the planet. The night Luton provokes Naomi Verne, actress and daughter of a presidential candidate, into storming his hotel suite, a suicide squad—supported by a dirty bomb—supposedly takes over the floor below. Fact or illusion, in the frenzied swirl of allegation and revelation, Luton’s plan for her survival unfolds—to begin with, Naomi must forsake her identity. | en_US |
