When computer junkie Jack North downloads a pirated copy of Silicon Sphere from the internet, he can’t wait to try it out. After all, Sphere is said to be the ultimate in virtual reality, with graphics, sounds, even smells so realistic, you’d swear you were inside the game–or the game had somehow leaked out into the real world. But when other Sphere players start to disappear, Jack suspects there may be something more to it than meets the eye–something altogether sinister. What he discovers as he treads the line between reality and illusion, between sanity and madness, is a virtual world so nightmarish the only way out may be to give in.
