Turner, mercenario corporativo, despierta en un cuerpo reconstruido, con una bella mujer a su lado. Luego, la Corporación Hosaka lo reactiva para una misión más peligrosa que aquella de la que se está recuperando: el jefe de I+D de Maas-Neotek deserta. Turner es el asignado para sacarlo intacto, junto con el biochip que perfeccionó. Pero esto demuestra ser de supremo interés para otras partes, algunas de las cuales no son ni remotamente humanas. Bobby Newmark es completamente humano: un estafador de datos del cinturón industrial totalmente desprevenido para lo que se le presenta cuando la deserción desencadena una guerra en el ciberespacio. Con vudú en la Red y un precio por su cabeza, Newmark cree que solo está tratando de salir con vida. Una parábola del futuro con estilo, inteligente y aterradoramente probable y secuela de Neuromancer
