No one goes out anymore.
Society is staying safe at home. The economy is in ruins. People spend their lives addicted to groundbreaking virtual reality technology, desperately seeking escapism in an unstable world. The nirvana effect has taken control.
Aaron and Clarissa belong to the subculture of realists who resist the temptation of false utopia. They watch in horror as technology spreads across the country, and eager participants easily give up their freedom for false pleasures. When a young couple uncovers a conspiracy aimed at enforcing mind control, a fight for free will begins. What started as a playful sabotage turns out to be deadly serious. The stakes are the future of humanity.
