The future isn’t what it used to be since Richard K. Morgan introduced Takeshi Kovacs, a private eye and antihero, in his acclaimed series. In Market Forces, he explored corporate warfare through Chris Faulkner. Now, he presents Carl Marsalis, a hybrid hired gun and man without a country or planet, in a radical reshaping of science fiction. Genetically engineered by the U.S. government, Marsalis represents a new breed of supersoldier, designed for primal aggression and survival. However, the project was abandoned due to public fear, leading to the Thirteens' exile on a desolate Mars colony. Marsalis managed to return to Earth, thriving as a bounty hunter until a police sting landed him in prison, a fate he considers worse than Mars. A new opportunity arises when the government offers him a chance at freedom in exchange for capturing another Thirteen. This fugitive has hijacked a space shuttle and left a bloody trail, making the job perilous. Despite the violence and treachery that await him, Marsalis accepts the challenge, driven by the desire to escape his prison. The real question is whether he can survive the confrontation with his own nature long enough to succeed.
