In tomorrow's world, the global economy will rest upon the listing of humans on the stock market. But what sort of price will those whose shares are traded have to pay for their prosperity? Felix's meteoric rise to the top has brought him much, but it also cost him dearly. Rachel has left him. His shareholders keep demanding ever more from him. Desperate, horrified, the young man is losing himself - but even that he is not allowed. The final volume of a painfully plausible trilogy.
