Near-future London. It has become popular for folks to have a small implant that allows one access to a more robust social media experience-- Panopticon-- directly as an augmented reality. Moremi has the implant, and she can see inside the minds and dreams of others. When the British government plans to make the connection procedure compulsory, they promise Panopticon will end human suffering and usher in a perfect world. Orpheus, raised by a neo-Luddite father, questions everything. Orpheus and Moremi uncover the nefarious effects of the technology, but find themselves unable to agree on whether it should be destroyed or continued. -- adapted from back cover.
