The Story
Early in the 21st century the world is ruled by clusters
of mega-corporations called Metronets.
Their ultimate goal: the control of mankind's global data network,
as information has become the new fabric of society - the New God.
Dealing in the flow of this information are outlaw computer
hackers, the best of the best being Tiger Edge.
His brain impregnated by a rogue surveillance drone in a friendly-fire
incident during the final battle of Desert Storm III, Tiger has
unwittingly become the next phase in human evoluton - part man/part machine,
a being whose special abilities make him invaluable to some...
a dangerous threat to others
The story begins as Tiger dispatches an Interloper assassin sent
to kill him. He returns to his apartment to find Trent Razek, head
of Metatech, waiting for him. Razek informs Tiger of an "accident"
that involved Jade, Edge's girlfriend and fellow hacker. Tiger
enlists the aid of his computer genius friend, Kelvin, and enters
cyberspace himself in an effort to find out what happened to Jade.
