Kenneth Peterson learns immortality comes at a price in this near future story by the author of the Moreau Society series.

No longer Kenneth Peterson, now he is KI-P3 "Kip," a crystallized brain wrapped in an A.I. core net-a mentic who works security for Interplanetary Portal Enterprises. They promise immortality and deliver indentured servitude.

IPE's headquarters occupies the 'New West Coast'-not the one destroyed by Cascadia's quakes and eruptions-the one built in Israel over the ruins of what was called Gaza. Kip remembers the past.

A past potentially resurrected when he is alerted to a security problem.
