| book description |

Forget the World Wide Web. In the future, all aspects of human interaction are done through the Flywire Network. A Flywire is an electronic device surgically implanted behind every citizen's ear that gives them wireless access to infinite libraries of digital information. Want some pizza delivered to the house? No problem. With a thought you can connect to the Flywire Network and order some. Did you get lost while driving? Think of your destination and the Flywire Network will send the correct route directly to your brain. Are you feeling like having some, um, romantic company for the evening? Think it, and a hologram of a sexy virtual partner zaps before you! Technology can finally make our dreams a reality quicker faster than you can snap your fingers. But is this a gift or curse? Police officer Kelsey Fontine is forced to retire after his Flywire stops working. A disastrous gunfight and failed kidnapping of his neighbor's kid have him back in the role of hero. In a future world where technology is EVERYTHING, Kelsey must find a way to save the day without being jacked into the system.
