Alex, a young woman working at a highly regarded Tech-software corporation, has become the first ever test subject for Halo, a highly advanced computer processor that is fused with the brain. But this vision of the future is soon overshadowed by the workings of a mysterious hacker, who uses the Halo in Alex's head as a way to exact cyber-terrorism that not only threatens the corporation and its interests, but Alex's own life. The line between technology and biology is finally obliterated when Alex dies from the unstable Halo in her head.
