Anno Domini I: The Cast of Shadows

Polite, discreet, amicable, a pacifist and a humanitarian. These are just some of the words that don't exist in Mal's dictionary. He, however, is coming along for the ride, so do try to play nice. At least for the time being.

You won't know if you've caught the attention of the illustrious Shanghai Hacker until it's too late. Do you pass up the opportunity of a lifetime to work with a bona fide underworld celebrity such as himself?

A sharp blade on a quick draw. Gouma is Shanghai Hacker's bodyguard and a street samurai in the truest sense. While he would prefer to observe from the sidelines, a ghost from his past will leave him entangled in this fiasco as well.

Runners rarely meet their Johnsons in the flesh but that's far from the only thing out of the ordinary with this one. A seemingly average corporate sabotage job may get you embroiled in something far more sinister.

Both the pursuer and the pursued. Once brilliant cyberneticist, he is now relegated to the shadows, waging an invisible war in order to save the legacy of his life's work and perhaps even the world as we know it.
