Verity is hired to beta-test a new product: "Eunice", a digital assistant who soon manifests an unnervingly canny grasp of combat strategy. Meanwhile, a century ahead, in an altered London - the result of a timeline in which Hillary Clinton didn't become president - Ainsley Lowbeer, can look into alternate pasts and nudge their ultimate directions. Verity and Eunice have become her current project. From the New York Times bestselling and award-winning author of "Neuromancer".
