Retina Blues

Retina Blues: a moody cyberpunk de force set in a gritty urban future packed with crazed surreal characters; disillusioned mercenaries, chip-enhanced hit men and women, cloned Sumo killers. Ruthless competition in search of Sands, an elite marine fatale raised as a factory kitten, grew into a panther matured on the ice-fields of global war, selling something they all want but at what price? A twisting tortured path of destruction and self realisation. Retina Blues: inspired by the lyric 'I blame you' - (Behind Blue Eyes: 'The Who'), a hard hitting multi layered pursuit that ricochets at pace through the unforgiving wreckage of futuristic post apocalyptic war. Savannah: hit woman, mercenary, street samurai, take your pick.. is pissed at being dead, and is looking to live again at any price. Claymore: burnt out soldier turned mercenary turned hit man, seen it all, till contracted to hunt Sands. The Twins: Sumo clones who hate everything and everybody, paid to do what they do best. Jake: of 'The Order Of The Jake', thinks that he is God, and is to some, protected by a sect of loyal Monks and cybergenic panthers. Marie: sole ally to Sands; cybertramp, highly skilled hacker who works for elite clients breaching high security ice, flirts with reality through the cyber realms of vast global companies. Sands: AWOL female Marine, traitor to some, irresistible to many, hunted by all. Vortex: a smile chiselled from winter fog, skin that licks at the light, the softly spoken words uttered from the cold slit in his face carrying the unmistakable aura of power. Has the world on a leash, wants everything that Sands is, with a vengeance. Retina Blues: a roller-coaster of who can salvage what, and at what cost? www.retinablues.co.uk
