In 2045 America is ruled by 'The Brain'. It's a country of dried-up rivers, computer project educations, holographs, and robots. Most species have died off and even fresh air is scarce. Children don't form bonds and therefore can't love. They become drones - dangerous killers. The answer lies on a road in Pindar Corners, New York, but to find it is to face the technology that created it.
