And by Case, computer cowboy, until his nervous system is grievously maimed by a client he double-crossed. Japanese experts in nerve splicing and microbionics have left him broke and close to dead. But at last Case has found a cure. He's going back into the system. Not for the bliss of cyberspace but to steal again, this time from the big boys, the almighty megacorps. In return, should he survive, he will stay cured."

Le cerveau directement relié à la matrice, il savait comme personne se frayer un chemin parmi les labyrinthes du cyberspace et pirater des données confidentielles pour le compte de ses clients richissimes. Mais il a commis l'erreur de vouloir doubler un de ses employeurs qui, en guise de représailles, l'a amputé de son système nerveux, le privant ainsi de son accès à la matrice. De retour dans la prison de chair de son corps, Case tente de s'échapper à nouveau par le biais des drogues, jusqu'à ce qu'une obscure conspiration lui offre une seconde chance... mais à quel prix ?"
