Money. Power. Drugs. War.
For nearly a century the Orbital Corporation Pfizer-Teva has supplied the leading citizens of Drop City with Clar1ty: a potent and effective cerebral enhancer. Hailed as a miracle of modern science, its use has catapulted the planet to untold heights of wealth and power.
There is a dark side to the wonders. Behind the scenes, Pfizer-Teva leverages the supply to influence government policy, manipulate financial markets, and ruthlessly eliminate dissent. Clar1ty insures the entire Kepler22 system remains dominated by the Orbital Corporations.
There are those who believe its hold must be broken. At all cost.
This morning, seven Clar1ty addicts were found bled out in an abandoned warehouse, the beautiful fence who handled the black market shipment woke up framed for murder, and somebody tried to assassinate fifteen government officials.
War is coming, and these are snapshots from the crossfire.
