Description: Los Angeles, 2023--Cyberplagues. People are crippled by common tech byproducts like EMF and amplified sound. Consumer credit and the health insurance industries have merged. Databases of personal health information flash before any kid behind a cash register. Want a slice of pizza? Sorry, mister, your cholesterol is high, and I see you haven't been to the gym this week. Enter Redcrosse, a medical diagnostic chair that delivers instant, accurate, untraceable information to its patients and stores the information privately. But when its inventor is found dead in the chair and a disgraced cop and a former English professor are called in to solve the case, strange accidents befall them and all around them. Can they find the truth before it's too late?--Provided by publisher.
