SYNOPSIS: The Nether is a virtual wonderland that provides total sensory immersion. Just log in, choose an identity and indulge your every desire. But when a young detective uncovers a disturbing brand of entertainment, she triggers an interrogation into the darkest corners of the imagination.
Both a twisting criminal drama and a haunting sci-fi thriller, The Nether explores the consequences of living out our private imaginings in the age of virtual reality.
“... a parable for where we’re headed... The Nether exerts a vise-like grip,
while taking you down avenues of thought you probably haven’t traveled yet."—The New York Times
