A brutal serial killer is on the loose in Hightown City, but the city chooses to look the other way: after all, it hopes to become the next Silicon Valley. Ad salesman Joe would also prefer to ignore the case – but that’s hard to do with the blood of the latest victim on his face. When the killer threatens to murder him if he talks he finds himself increasingly cornered. Even more so when the killer’s voice starts drilling into his mind… and even slips into his dreams.
