About this ebook
In the individual, virtual-reality-like mind space of Youtopia, "Immersers" can live in their own perfect world, but chaos ensues when an Immerser is murdered inside his Youtopia.
FBI Special Agent Anabel Downer, one of the Bureau's best, is assigned to the case. In her investigations of the mysterious murder, she interviews Youtopia's staunchest supporters and naysayers, and gathers clues about the seedier sides of Immerser life.
Along the way, she encounters her own troubled past, and questions herself what is real. As the killer escalates his efforts, Ana must confront not only the hardest case of her life, but also her own demons.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS the first intriguing installment in the "Youtopia" series of techno-thriller/sci-fi/crime adventures, which, though fiction, seems all too possible in the real world... real soon.
