'Detective Bram Tedeschi would rather punch scumbags' faces than punch buttons on a keyboard. But when two VR gamers turn up electrocuted in their haptic suits, he’s forced to investigate a world he knows nothing about.
'With the help of his tech-savvy partner, Vancy, Bram works to track down a hacker who’s more rumor than real – the mysterious Psyren.
'Can they solve things before they become the next target? Or will their lives become a nightmare, where their biggest fears are used to drive them insane?'
