There's a pig man at your window, and he's hungry.
A hideous
face hides a beautiful soul, physical perfection conceals monstrosity,
death becomes eternal life, and the greatest liar of them all must
learn to tell the truth, and do the one right thing.
This is the world of Imago.
Something
has gone very wrong with this world. Changed freaks, victims of the
Human Mutational Virus, roam California's streets. DisLex, the
entertainment utility, monitors everyone's lives; yet few know that
DisLex not only controls life, it has created it: perfect virtual
constructs who can never die – the Imagos.
DisLex chairman
Harmon Jacques wanted to grow up to rule the world. He's well on his
way. For the freaks, he's built Camp Roberts: the outcasts go in, but
the only way they come out is in a body bag. For everyone else, he's
created the PerfectTown, home for the Imagos, and the way the future is
going to be.
Chief among the Imagos is a guy named Dick, a
virtual reconstruction of the memories of the 37th President of the
United States: Richard M. Nixon. When Dick meets Harmon's idealistic
young assistant Julie Curtez, Imagos and freaks are set on a collision
course that will either destroy their world, or redeem it.
