A chocolate brain like an easter egg split in two, surrounded by Easter garlands Title: Bad Sector Text: "Two minds. One skull. Zero chance his day gets better". Footer: Cy Dethan Bad Sector by Cy Dethan In the sentient city of Expectation, an augmented executioner hunts the murderer of Everyday Carrie, the Woman who Couldn’t Be Killed. Permanent Mark is going to solve this case if it kills him – again. In Expectation, virtually all forms of criminality carry the same penalty: complete neurological rollback to the perpetrator’s last known ‘uncorrupted’ state. For offences beyond conventional remedy, offences against the mechanisms of justice itself, there are the Hangmen. Erased from every surveillance and record-keeping system in Expectation and sharing his brain with a secondary consciousness known as an Advocate, Mark’s investigation sees him spilling blood in every corner of the self-building city, from its molecular reconstructions of Las Vegas and Paris to the scratch-built slums of East End London. Stalked by allies and enemies alike, increasingly questioning the true nature and motives of the stranger in his skull, Mark finds himself lost and hunted in the organic rubble of the First City, the Precursor City, the living ruins of Aspiration. Bad Sector is noir-inflected punk science fiction, an existential anthem of silicon and scar tissue.
