“How would it feel to wake up one day and find that everything in your life had changed?†Alex Wilde, recently promoted head of the government’s Digital Future project, finds his world plunged into chaos when it appears he may be responsible for the collapse of London's entire television network. Along with new friends the charismatic but unpredictable drifter Szandor and PhD student Minal, Alex finds himself facing a drunken raid on Highgate Cemetery, an LSD-laced chocolate fountain and a tiger fight, as he gets caught up with a shadowy group of idealistic computer hackers in a battle for control of the nation’s media.
Callum Jacobs' darkly comic second novel explores the best and worst of cyber society. Edward Abbey's The Monkey Wrench Gang for the Facebook generation.
