New Tokyo
by Marc Foxx
Year 2117. Japan struggles to preserve its culture in the aftermath of rampant third-world migration and international pressures. Mega-corporations ostensibly enhance everyday life with new technologies amidst rising crime and poverty. The country is plagued by ethnic and religious terrorism. Only the wealthy can afford to live in the safety of New Tokyo, a cutting-edge metropolis built upon the vestige of the once-great Old Tokyo below. It obscures the sun for those unfortunate to live beneath in perpetual night.
There lives former police sergeant Jacob Raburn. One-quarter Japanese, his tendency to play by his own rules eventually caught up to him. Recently divorced and forced into early retirement at the age of 37, Jacob finds his partial pension payments lacking. He reminisces about an idyllic past as he seeks out a new source of income and a better life.
A chance opportunity from a former commanding officer appears to be the break he’s looking for—but things are not always what they seem. In his search for the truth, Jacob uncovers more than he could have imagined. With the help of unlikely and sometimes unsavoury allies, Jacob comes to question exactly who and what he’s fighting for.
