Streetcab Seshjack
If you borrow a body, there is no going back.
Aedan Namakoto cares about one thing: saving humanity from being enslaved by an addictive virtual reality controlled by the adtech industry.
He’s also a man torn between two lives.
Online, he is the respected founder of a nonprofit VR network promising virtual worlds free from invasive ads and surreptitious surveillance.
Offline, he’s a guilt-ridden single father in poor health, working obsessively to escape the past.
But when a mysterious hacker pulls off an impossible crypto crime, Aedan is left broke and his network on the brink of bankruptcy.
The only one who can help him now is his estranged brother, the powerful CEO of an adtech network. But an enemy is a dangerous ally. And when Aedan does the unthinkable, borrowing a body against the will of its owner, he is betrayed in the worst possible way.
Set in a tug-of-war between IRL and VR as the main reality of humanity, Streetcab Seshjack is the story of a man forced to sacrifice one half of himself to save the other.
