The story
In the near future, a new law sends criminals to a virtual reality prison built by Zircon, a shadowy corporation based in Seattle. Steven Falcon, the system's designer, realizes the dangers of the program being overloaded and also of hackers who try to break in to steal files which inadvertently allows prisoners a possible method of escape. When Falcon threatens to quit the operation he becomes marked for death by his employers who force him to enter the system to find the source of the danger of the system crashing.
