Is your significant other acting suspicious? Do you hate your boss? Do you think the world has it in for you? Do people call you paranoid? If one, or all, of the above apply to you then welcome to the world of Chip Frank. The year is 2121 and, except for a couple of additional World Wars, not much has changed. Chaos, corruption and greed still rule the day. In this vortex of futuristic evil, ordinary men are broken and battered by all powerful government agencies and secret underground societies - men like Chip. Deciding to do a bit of interplanetary investigating, Chip inadvertently opens up a Pandora’s box of murder, deceit, drug-addled extraterrestrials and alternate realities. The unimaginable truths he uncovers, and the fall he is set-up to take, will lead him to the brink of madness. In the end, all that remains for him is to seek revenge on those who had wronged him… or become a permanent resident of the INTERGALACTIC NUTHOUSE.
