Karl Latte doesn't like the 21st century. Not recombinants, not Ultimate Reality, not Digitally Mastered Immortals. Most of all he dislikes the talent that's damned him–the ability to see into minds. A forty-year-old ex cop with bad knees and a arrhythmic heart, he may be the last man in 2030 LA without a stcom implanted in his cortex. A 21st century Luddite with the skills of a gun-for-hire, he returns to take a case that's already left nine agents parted out. The assignment takes him to a sea platform owned by the genetic conglomerate, Genesistems. His task: find Romy, one of the last surviving first-generation recombinants. Tall, slender, gifted, with a beauty as artificial as she is, Romy is the apogee of genetic perfection–and everything Karl loathes in a woman. All Karl wants is to go home–but before he can he must smuggle Romy off the platform alive. Easier said than done. Genesistems wants them dead, a sadistic cabal murders Sisters two a night, and a 21st century demon lurks just out of sight, craving possession of them both. Most alarming for Karl, as he grows to know the patented life form he has come to protect, his most charished prejudices teeter as his concept of what is human and what is not skews bewilderingly.

Night Hume is good cop, an honest cop, a cop who believes in the job. For three years as an undercover narcotics task force officer he’s lived the life of the maggots he pursues——years that have cost him a home, a marriage, a daughter. 
Assigned to make a buy from a college professor who sells to her students, the last person he expects to meet is Ceridwen Laurence. Night knows dealers, and Ceridwen doesn’t fit the mold. What is it about her that makes him break the rules he’s lived by, question every precept, lie——to her, to his partner, to his boss, to himself? After twenty years as a cop, is he losing his faith in the law? 
Job in the balance, Night finds himself neck-deep in a government cover up that nearly costs him and his partner their lives. Now he must decide not only whether to gamble their lives exposing a political conspiracy no one will believe, but whether the enforcement of marijuana laws is worth a child’s life. 
Tough decisions… 
 If he stay alive long enough to make them…
