FREE TO BE SAFE ... SAFE TO BE FREE

The year is 2084. The Pansophical Corporation protects what's left of humanity from the Tembakoo virus and a terrorist organization known as Praxis.

Loyal citizen Antony Sartori was once a Pansophical robotics engineer. After losing his wife to the pandemic, he now spends his days betting on sports and scrapes by thanks to his monthly Prosperity Dividend.

One night while he's at the pub, news of a deadly Tembakoo variant breaks. On his drunken walk home, he's assaulted by Public Safety for violating curfew. That's when the bizarre flashbacks begin. And he starts to think that the memory lapses he usually experiences may not be unique.

In a culture suffused by suspicion, asking the wrong questions would put him in the communal crosshairs, but Antony is determined to uncover the truth-no matter the cost.
