		     English Summary/英文概要: When pretty, talented and very ambitious Amina Mir manages to land a newspaper work experience placement she thinks it might just be making coffee and following-up tame stories. But then, when by chance she’s sent to interview Ivor MacMorris, a veteran of the war in Sinnostan who’s just won millions on the lottery, but bizarrely hasn’t spent a penny, things start to get interesting... and dangerous. Ivor thinks he’s been made to forget what happened in Sinnostan. He believes false memories of how and why he lost an eye have been planted in his brain and that he’s being followed by threatening faceless people. At first Amina thinks Ivor’s suffering from some sort of post-traumatic stress disorder, but soon Ivor, conspiracy theorist Chi Sandwith and events persuade Amina that she could have stumbled into one of the biggest and most terrifying cover-ups ever. With every question they ask, they unpeel another layer of lies and place themselves in more danger, and each time they have to face the worst question of all: if they do manage to discover the truth, will anybody want to know?
             Chinese Summary/中文概要: Ivor确信自己一直被监视着…
Amina Mir在遇见Ivory McMorris时,是一位有着丰富从业经验的伦敦新闻工作者。Ivor曾在Sinnostan服役,而他坚信自己的记忆被某人抹除了他当时的经历。他担心自己如果试图想要找回自己的记忆,监视者会让他就此消失。
Chi Sandwith 开始着手调查这起阴谋。他和有着像Ivon一样遭遇的士兵交谈。这些人在谈论到一个‘头皮’秘密组织都面露惧色。好像有很多人都对‘头皮’组织的‘意外事故’有着诸多疑问。
Tariq是Amina的弟弟。他如今正在参与一项由军队操控的学校培训新计划。这项培训项目是让运用参与者所喜好的激动有趣的电脑游戏来传授科目。但Tariq开始怀疑这个开发新项目游戏背后的动机不纯。
一些问题还没有找打答案。而另一些未解之谜又浮出水面。真相只有一个,但那可能会是致命的结果… (Sandy)

Oisin McGann was born in Dublin in 1973. Art college ruined any chance he had of getting a real job, so when he left in 1992, he set himself up as a freelance illustrator. In 1998 he moved to London, and through no fault of his own he ended up working in advertising as an art director and copy writer. After three and a half years he began to fear for his immortal soul. He returned to Ireland in the summer of 2002 much as he had left it – with no job, no home and some meagre savings. Ever the optimist, he now works once more as an illustrator and mercenary artist by day and escapist writer by night. You can visit his website at www.oisinmcgann.com
