Description:
The once utopian Chasm City -- a domed human settlement on an otherwise inhospitable planet -- has been overrun by a virus known as the Melding Plague, capable of infecting any body, organic or computerized. Now, with the entire city corrupted -- from its people to the very buildings they inhabit -- only the most wretched, grim sort of existence remains.
And it is through this city that Tanner Mirabel must pursue the object of his vendetta: a lowlife postmortal named Argent Reivich. But as Reivich keeps slipping through the cracks of Chasm, Tanner will be taken far beyond the mere settling of a score -- to come face to face with a centuries-old atrocity that history would rather forget....
