What happens when a Hero crosses the thin blue line in Necrotic City and has to fight for survival in a chaotic, decaying world?
Adrian is a vat-grown human known as a Hero. Enhanced through genetic engineering and implanted nanotechnology, Heroes serve as the superhumanly resilient, altruistic peacekeepers of the Company's tightly controlled city. Internal matters like corruption and criminal negligence are strictly outside of a Hero's jurisdiction; but when Adrian begins to uncover the ugly secrets of the government that created him, his sense of justice forces him to act.
Cut loose in a city wracked by civil unrest, hunted by Enforcers and flesh hackers alike, Adrian quickly learns that there is no safe place for a Company man.
