In cyberspace, there are new challenges, new dangers…new ways to die. Carl Orin, Basement Five's first cybernaut is lost in a universe of bits and bytes. His rival, Dr. Tania Flowers, should be happy that karma has bitten Carl in the backside, but she's itching to get into cyberspace herself and what better excuse than a one-woman rescue mission? Tania thinks she's prepared for what she'll find, but she's about to discover that the digital world is more dangerous than she imagined. When she finds Carl, she faces a bigger issue than her injured pride. An AI-fuelled botnet is devastating the digital landscape, and only a suicide mission into its core will avert total disaster. In the midst of their rekindled passion, hard decisions need to be made. Who will attempt the impossible? Who will stay behind? And what happens if either of them fails?
