The elite hacker "Ghost" died in a betrayal, only to wake up inside the cybernetic body of a beautiful young woman. Her new mission? Infiltrate the police station. Her new partner? The cool, beautiful policewoman who tried to arrest her just last night. Wait, aren't handcuffs supposed to be for criminals?
I'm "Ghost," the top hacker feared throughout Cyber City, codename NOX.
I died at the hands of the partner I trusted most, then woke up in a young woman's cybernetic body.
I planned to keep my identity hidden, but my nemesis, Lin Wei, the Special Operations Bureau's ace, forcibly recruited me.
"Starting today, you're my partner."
The cold muzzle of a gun pressed against my chin. She had no idea that beneath the mask was the enemy she'd been chasing for three years.
By day, I played the harmless technician at her side.
By night, I returned as "Ghost," crossing blades with her.
I thought I could fool everyone, until she tore open my collar and pointed at the energy core in my chest, sneering:
"This model's energy signature is exactly the same as the residue from the NOX explosion site."
"Care to explain, my little hacker?"
Beneath Cyber City's neon lights, lies and sincerity flicker together.
As the truth about the city is peeled away layer by layer, I discover that my death was only the beginning of a much bigger conspiracy.
This is a story about hackers and cops, lies and redemption, steel and roses.
When the curtain of truth rises, will you join me in cutting the power to this city?
