Synopsis "Adam X"

"The global Continental Cabals are on the verge of the first major mass Android rollout. There are already many in circulation, but they are currently far from standard, more of a luxury item for those few who can afford them. The next stage will make them cheaper and an essential item, much like the family car. In the UK, Robot Activist Sardinia Freechild, claims it will be little better than slavery, and there are other voices in London, Paris, and NY, who fear potential revolt or just the crumbling of an already struggling global society, as the ever-growing populace has their jobs replaced by robots. On top of this, there are localised massacres in Japan, illegal gun sales in New York, Credit Account hacking by an unknown assailant, and the international search for a man who doesn't seem to exist. Is one man orchestrating all of the chaos, and who is he? Who is Adam X, and who stands behind him? This is my return to the genre of Cyberpunk, with this fast-paced Techno Thriller about the possible Technological implications of a near and very dark future. Again, based mostly around PKD, Masamune, and the work of Gibson, but I hope I have put it all together with a voice unique to myself, and I hope you will be engaged."
