Our Dependence on Foreign Keys

By William Shunn

Release date: 2 May 2017

“Shunn is a fine writer; ingenious, stylish, closely in touch with current global trends and expert in producing thought-provoking near-future SF.”—Nick Gevers, Locus Magazine

When high-tech partycrashers swarm his exclusive soirée high above the floodways of New York City, billionaire inventor Pell Franziskaner can’t be sure whether it’s a garden-variety annoyance or a prelude to murder. His own.

Environment, economics, and augmented reality collide in this novelette of reputation, revenge, and artificial intelligences so advanced they run directly on the fabric of spacetime.
