Plot summary

In 2027, illegal androids are common and criminals have themselves fitted with cybernetic parts. Alex Rain works as an assassin and bounty hunter for the LAPD. The Red Army Hammerheads nearly kill him, and months of cybernetic reconstruction leave him part machine. He quits and works as a freelance hustler until Farnsworth, his former superior, has him seized for one last assignment. Farnsworth says Jared, Alex's former partner and lover, an android, has taken security data concerning a summit between the United States and Japan and intends to hand it to the Hammerheads and their leader, Angie-Liv. A bomb placed in Alex's heart during his repairs leaves him three days to find her. He is flown to Shang-Loo on Java and turned loose as bait.
