2029. Fentanyl, nitazene, captagon, and synthetic poisons kill millions. As the body count grows, frustrated value engineer Rave Maps takes direct action, infiltrating drug labs and cartel strongholds, costing the life of her close friend. Canadian NC3 cybercrime agency chief Kate Tong urges Rave to pull herself together and join the first tourist excursion to Mars aboard a Chinese ship as Tong's eyes and ears. The journey provides Rave one desperate chance to destroy her Digital Twin before that game-changing AI technology falls into the wrong hands.
Rave cannot rest until she untangles her twisted inner spiritual terrain, racing from Mallorca to Steamboat Springs, Shanghai, and Cozumel, then departing Hainan Island for Mars. Personal monsters stand at the door every day, waiting for her to invite them in for tea and a conversation.
Would you open that door?
