About the Book
Six months have passed since the release of Nexus 5. The world is a different, more dangerous place.
In the United States, the terrorists – or freedom fighters – of the
Post-Human Liberation Front use Nexus to turn men and women into human
time bombs aimed at the President and his allies. In Washington DC, a
government scientist, secretly addicted to Nexus, uncovers more than he
wants to know about the forces behind the assassinations, and finds
himself in a maze with no way out.
In Thailand, Samantha
Cataranes has found peace and contentment with a group of children born
with Nexus in their brains. But when forces threaten to tear her new
family apart, Sam will stop at absolutely nothing to protect the ones
she holds dear.
In Vietnam, Kade and Feng are on the run from
bounty hunters seeking the price on Kade’s head, from the CIA, and from
forces that want to use the back door Kade has built into Nexus 5. Kade knows he must stop the terrorists misusing Nexus before they ignite a
global war between human and posthuman. But to do so, he’ll need to stay alive and ahead of his pursuers.
And in Shanghai, a posthuman child named Ling Shu will go to dangerous and explosive lengths to free her uploaded mother from the grip of Chinese authorities.
The first blows in the war between human and posthuman have been struck. The world will never be the same.
