description: In the not-too-distant future in what was once the old City of New York megacorporations have taken over everything. Now even the internet is owned and the only way to transmit sensitive information is by a network of highly skilled couriers called data runners who run it over the sneakernet. It is a dangerous gig in a dirty world but Jack Nill doesnt have much choice in the matter. A brilliant young math whiz and champion of parkour Jack must become one of these data runners in order to get his father out of a major gambling debt. But when a mysterious stranger loads Jacks chip with a cryptic cargo that everybody wants he soon becomes the key figure in a conspiracy that could affect the entire North American Alliance. Now its all up to Jack. With the help of his best friend Dexter and a girl who runs under the name Red Tail Jack will have to use all his skills to outrun the retrievers and uncover the truth before they catch him and clip him for good.
