Description

In a near-future Edinburgh where online crime has become as pervasive as street crime, Detective Inspector Liz Kavanaugh leads the Rule 34 Squad in monitoring the Internet’s darkest offenses. When three ex-convict spammers are murdered, she begins tracing the connections between their pasts, their illicit enterprises, and a threat that reaches far beyond ordinary cybercrime. Blending hard-boiled police procedural with sharp social satire and inventive speculative technology, the novel explores privacy, surveillance, automation, and the unintended consequences of a hyperconnected world.
