When the ensuing investigation reveals that the attackers aren't who they appeared to be, justice depends on the testimony of a single witness -- a street snitch with a history of providing information to a uniformed cop named Harvey Greer. Harvey is placed on special assignment to track down the informant, but others have their own designs, including a wealthy socialite and an ex-con turned religious leader known to his followers as The Prophet. As days pass and anger among the anti-surrogate population grows, the city stands on a razor's edge. Will punishment be exacted in a courtroom-- or on the streets? Set fifteen years prior to the events of the first volume, The Surrogates: Flesh and Bone sheds light on the past that binds the cast together. From the streets of Central Georgia Metropolis to the boardroom of Virtual Self, Inc., it takes us on a journey through a city struggling to come to grips with its present. As much a cautionary tale as a story of suspense, this book reminds us that tomorrow will be determined by the choices we make today" --Publisher's Web site. 650 0 $a Police $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Virtual reality $v Fiction. $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Terrorists $v Fiction. $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Detective and mystery comic books, strips, etc. 655 0 $a Science fiction comic books, strips, etc. 655 0 $a Graphic novels. 700 1 $a Weldele, Brett. 700 1 $a Staros, Chris. 941 $a 3 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409013830.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215025832.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418074605.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AF9CC1F2FBCD11DEB3E93EDF5F36B428 994 $a 02 $b JIMInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
