It's a time of change. While mankind is adjusting to its first encounter with an alien civilisation, black-ops soldier Jim Leyton has absconded from the agency that trained him, and allied himself with a mysterious faction in order to rescue the woman he loves. Since his death, scientist and businessman Philip Kaufman has realised that there is more to the virtual world than he'd suspected. Yet it soon becomes clear that all is not well in Virtuality. Both men begin to suspect that the much heralded 'First Contact' was anything but, and that a sinister con is being perpetrated on the whole of humankind. Now all they have to do is prove it.

'There's a lot to enjoy here: the characters, the action, a rogue AI starship, and spooky alien technology... I read it straight through.' - Neal Asher on 'The Noise Within'
'... A thoroughly entertaining space opera' - SFX on 'The Noise Within'
