Her father's murder has thrust Joanna into a world-within-a-world, the secretive, shadowy conflict between titanic corporations, vast entities called "Hypercorporations", which wage a terrible war for control of humanity's future.

Her violent vendetta forced Joanna into the alliance with the mysterious Carrington Institute - run by the equally enigmatic Daniel Carrington. Joanna is now a footsoldier on this new, clandestine battlefield, where information is ammunition, where money buys deceit, and where a cold war in the new world order is about to turn hot...
