Indigo, a Junior Clerk working for the OK Corporation, is murdered in her home.
Rinzler, a freelance Private Investigator in a post-Apocalyptic world, is hired posthumously by the victim's own life policy.He must discover whether the death is an assassination by Indigo's employer. Or simply a cruel act of mankind.
Delving further into her life, Rinzler soon realises this is not going to be as simple as he hoped. He soon finds his investigation hampered by politics and corporate cover-ups. Becoming a suspect in his own investigation, Rinzler must quickly decide who to trust as this becomes a life or death case. For himself.
All clues are pointing to the resident androids, yet their programs render them incapable of harm to humans. Or is Rinzler about to be thrown into the middle of a war between Artificial Intelligence and Humanity?
Rinzler is bursting with technology that we can only dream of and leads you on a journey of mystery, mayhem and murder whilst pursuing a truth that defies all logical capabilities.
