The future is here, and the world is a dangerous and chaotic place. Terrorists operate openly, killing thousands; drugs, disease, and pollution kill even more. The world's economies are close to collapse, and the gap between the insanely wealthy and the desperately poor has grown to the size of the Grand Canyon. Worst of all, an age-old conspiracy bent on world domination has decided that the time is right to emerge from the shadows and take control. No one believes it exists. No one but you.
