Publisher's Synopsis
Friday 6th August - EMERGENCY, DAY 1022
The world is shut down, buried under smog, and above swirling mirk of The City and the wider Bay Area, the Pierspoint Building has become a prison for its residents. Two such inmates, Jake and Carrie, lovers and cellmates, are on the brink of suffocation-induced loathing. And while Jake, tired of virtual FakeReal worlds and distant calls with distant friends, breaks the curfew to escape Carrie and climb to the roof of the Pierspoint for the chance to catch a patch of blue above the smog, Carrie is looking elsewhere for companionship, as she virtually invites a virtual stranger into her very real home. And unbeknownst to her, he is the man who bought the world and sold it for scrap. He is Julius Adamos Kyriku. He is Fatberg. And he'll do what he always does for pennies on the dime.
