About the book
Set in August and September 2002, William Gibson's eighth novel, his first set in the present day, follows Cayce Pollard, a marketing consultant, aged 32, so sensitive to corporate logos that she reacts to them as if to an allergen. Hired by the firm Blue Ant to judge a proposed logo in London, she is offered a different job by its founder, Hubertus Bigend: find whoever is anonymously posting a series of enigmatic film clips online, footage Cayce herself follows closely. Her father, a Cold War security expert, has been missing since the morning of September 11, 2001, in Manhattan. The novel opens a trilogy continued in Spook Country and Zero History.
