How do you murder a tech billionaire inside an impenetrable, air-gapped vault? You drown him from the inside out.
Welcome to Neo-Shibuya, a sprawling, neon-drenched metropolis where corporate greed and digital gods rule the skyline, and the forgotten rot in the acidic rain below.
When Magnus Vance, the pioneer of neural-architecture, is found dead inside his perfectly sealed "Cloud-Nine Vault," the authorities are baffled. The cause of death? Internal drowning. His high-end synthetic lungs were hacked to harvest the room's moisture and drown him. Yet, the room’s digital security is flawless. No firewall breaches, no ghost signals, no digital footprint. It is the ultimate impossible crime.
Enter Detective Jax, a gritty, trench-coat-wearing hound of the Sector 4 precinct. Accompanied by the brilliant cyber-pathologist Dr. Aris Thorne, Jax descends into the treacherous underbelly of the city—the Silicon Slums and the dead zone known as the Rust Belt. He is hunting a top-tier phantom capable of bypassing billion-credit biometric seals without leaving a single line of corrupted code.
But as Jax digs deeper, reality begins to violently fracture. Visual glitches, missing time, and impossible memories plague his investigation. The city itself seems to be tearing apart at the seams. Soon, Jax discovers a terrifying truth: the killer isn't a digital hacker, but an analog terrorist wielding primitive tools. And even worse, Jax's own existence might be the greatest illusion of all.
Fast-paced and wildly inventive, this book seamlessly blends classic locked-room mystery mechanics with a gritty cyberpunk noir aesthetic. Perfect for fans of high-tech sci-fi thrillers, hardboiled detective fiction, and mind-bending plot twists.
Discover a world where the ultimate digital lock is broken by the simplest analog key. Scroll up and grab your copy today!

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
